A rectal temp. norm is 99.6, axillary is 97.6, oral and tympanic 98.6.


Perhaps I am over anxious about this. My armchair doctor book tells me
to be concerned by a temp over 99.2 (for infants under 2 months). That
is why I was concerned, though.

Thanks for the suggestions! I will watch the swaddling to see if that
could be the culprit.
