Patient's question:
My baby is a premature child. I was very worried about the child's condition from the beginning. Recently, the child has appeared with this series of conditions, and I am also very worried, afraid that the child will get worse. What should I do if the temperature is always above 38 degrees?Doctor's answer:
Generally, fever is a defensive response. If the body temperature is below 38.5 degrees, there is no need for antipyretic treatment. Rest, keep warm, and drink plenty of warm water. If the body temperature is above 38.5 degrees, you can take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for symptomatic treatment, and physical cooling methods can also be applied.Hello, no. Generally, the fetus in the mother's belly will not defecate because when the fetus is in the womb, it mainly relies on the umbilical cord to absorb nutrients through the mother. Additionally, during the baby's development and new metabolism, the byproducts are usually transmitted to the mother through the umbilical cord, which are then excreted by the mother.
