My baby is 8 weeks old and weighs 12 1/2 lb. She started showing a
fever 2 nights ago - 99 to 100 degrees in the ear. It hangs around for
a few hours and is gone by morning. I took her to the dr for a reg.
checkup yesterday morning and they tested her for RSV. She was
negative, so they gave her vaccine shots. That was awful. The fever
came back last night.

What can cause this?

TIA,

Why are you taking her temperature?

I mean, how do you know she has a fever BEFORE you take her temp -- what
other symptoms exist?

If there are no other symptoms, this may just be a normal variation for
her. I have one whose temp is routinely in the 99 range, without her
being ill in any way. And the home thermometers are not necessarily
that accurate, nor is the "ear" method.

If she has no other symptoms, I wouldn't worry about it.
