What is the normal body temperature for a newborn?

Generally speaking, the normal body temperature of a newborn is around 36.5°. If it is 37° or 36°, it is also within the normal range. For children under one year old, if the body temperature is below 37.5°, it is normal. If it is higher than this degree, you need to see a doctor.

01

Generally, a baby's normal body temperature fluctuates around 36.5 degrees. 37 degrees and 36 degrees are both relatively normal. A child's body temperature is generally slightly lower than an adult's. This is relatively normal. Generally, a baby's body temperature is different when doing different things. Mothers should pay attention to their baby's body temperature.

02

In the hot summer, the temperature is very high and the baby's ability to regulate its own body temperature is poor. When the mother holds the baby, the heat is not easy to dissipate, causing the body temperature to rise. However, this kind of fever usually does not last too long. Put the child in a cool place, fan him slightly, give him some cool fruit juice, or give him a warm bath.

03

For babies under one year old, a body temperature below 37.5℃ is considered normal. The reason is that the center in the baby's brain that controls body temperature regulation is not yet mature, that is, the ability to control body temperature is not strong enough, causing the baby's body temperature to be affected by the ambient temperature. In hot weather or when wrapped up too much, body temperature can rise slightly.

Note:

When a baby has an abnormal body temperature, mothers cannot choose medicine for the baby at will. Random choices will have an impact on the baby's body. A physical examination should be conducted first, and treatment should be chosen according to the doctor's advice. This will be very helpful in alleviating the body temperature problem. Mothers should pay attention to this.
