Normal body temperature for children is between 36 and 37.5 degrees. If the child has 38 degrees or higher, it is considered a fever. You can check in the child&#8217;s neck. If in doubt, measure the temperature with a thermometer.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The child&#8217;s body temperature is measured most accurately with a thermometer in the rectum. At a temperature below 36 degrees or above 38 degrees for a child under 3 months, a doctor should be contacted for an assessment. <\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>Hold and comfort<\/summary>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The baby needs you in order to feel secure. If it can\u2019t see or feel you, it doesn\u2019t understand that you\u2019re near at hand <\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>Check if the child is tired<\/summary>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Children often cry when they are tired, stressed or over-stimulated. Every child needs a lot of sleep and rest. A newborn needs an average of 13 to 17 hours of sleep a day. They often get tired after 1-2 hours awake. There is no definitive on how to make a child calm down or fall asleep. Some swaddle the baby, some take the baby for a stroll or in the car, other children calmed down by sounds like a vacuum cleaner, water flowing, or an adult making shhhh-sounds and comfort the baby.     <\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>Is the baby in pain?<\/summary>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check whether the baby appears to be uncomfortable. Take its temperature and see if its nappy or clothes are too tight, or if hairs have become wound around its fingers, toes or genitals. Should the amount of crying be unusually high, or you fear this could be due to illness, you must see a doctor.  <\/p>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-3a63d2ed wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group contact-cards has-global-padding is-content-justification-left is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-84cd1a41 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group contact-card contact-card--green has-secondary-background-color has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-4875c6a5 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"border-radius:8px;padding-top:1.5rem;padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-bottom:1.5rem;padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center stretched-link has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"tel:+116123\">Parent support &#8211; phone 116 123<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Call 24\/7, free and anonymously<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group contact-card contact-card--green has-secondary-background-color has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-4875c6a5 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"border-radius:8px;padding-top:1.5rem;padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-bottom:1.5rem;padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center stretched-link has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"http:\/\/mentalhelse.no\/fa-hjelp\/foreldresupport\">Parent support &#8211; chat<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Chat direct, free and anonymously<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group contact-card contact-card--red has-border-color has-primary-border-color has-base-color has-secondary-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-9af53d7458c56c124501d511adebc626 has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-4875c6a5 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"border-radius:8px;padding-top:1.5rem;padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-bottom:1.5rem;padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center stretched-link has-base-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-cdf2f5708404b2143a87ff8b0375e6e3 wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"tel:112\">Phone the police at 112<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-contrast-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-37a984ea666148df7747b106d17c7de6 wp-block-paragraph\">If you or your child is in danger<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2190 Back The baby won&#8217;t stop crying Try the tips below<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false},"class_list":["post-13519","tip","type-tip","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
