How to solve a newborn's body temperature of 37.8?

Patient's question:

My baby is a premature child, and 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 become worse. How can I solve the problem of a newborn's body temperature of 37.8°C?

Doctor's answer:

In your case, you can first use alcohol to bathe for fever reduction, and then identify the cause of the fever. There are many reasons that can cause fever, the most common being infection, followed by connective tissue diseases, malignant tumors, etc. Don't rush to take medication.
After the baby is one month old, feed them about every three hours, with each feeding being 80 ML. Feed them water twice a day, but dilute the formula slightly more than the instructions on the can. The baby's bowel movements are normal.
