Holy shit. In the words of Dana Carvey as Johnny Carson, I did not know that. And I'm far from the dumbest father on the block (I think). Why do they not teach this stuff at some point? Knowing that an infant's temp can go much higher than an adult's without damage, and that convulsions are (shudder) normal but a sign of rising temp, would be
much more useful to learn in Lamaze than that stupid breathing shit.
My kid's never exceeded 104. Before today, if he had, I'd probably have crapped myself and called 911.
