Which of the following statements made by a mother of an-eight-month-old infant would concern the nurse? My baby:
a. Cries all day at the sitter’s
b. Is teething and therefore running a fever
c. Doesn’t pay much attention to loud noises
d. Throws both arms forward when held

Answer B. The process of teething is a normal physiological development and does not cause an elevation in body temperature.
If an infant has a fever, there is an infectious process occurring in the body.
Remember, babies have passive immunity form their mothers until around six months of age.
Then they lose this immunity and are therefore more susceptible to infection.
