When the 6-month-old baby has a fever due to teething, it is mostly moderate to low fever at this time, and the body temperature will not exceed 38.5℃, so it is not necessary to give the baby antipyretics. After all, antipyretics are drugs, and babies may not feel comfortable after eating them. Parents should not give drugs to their babies without taking antipyretics.
For babies with moderate and low fever, the most ideal method is physical cooling. First of all, you can feed your baby more warm water. After feeding water from time to time, you can cool down by increasing body moisture and urinating. In addition to feeding water, you can also prepare warm water to wipe your baby. You can also consider taking a warm bath for your baby, but keep warm after bathing, otherwise it will be even hotter.
Parents don't need to worry too much about the discomfort of the baby's fever because of teething. As long as they insist on using the physical cooling method, the baby's fever will drop in a day or two. In the process of fever, check the baby's temperature from time to time. If the low fever turns into high fever, you need to take your baby to the hospital in time.
