[quote=Anonymous]You should always call the pediatrician if you are concerned. I don't think 102 fever in a six year old child by itself is considered a very high fever, but it sure is a fever! But what matters more thanthe temp is how your child feels. The afternoon/evening is typically when my children spike high fevers. It sounds like he might just have the stomach bug. If it were me, I'd stay close. Make sure he isn't overheating. Bring some cool washcloths to sponge his face and hands and don't cover him with too many clothes or blankets so he can cool off. by all means give the ped a call and just touch base, but right now it just sounds like your child is sick.[/quote]
