    Just curious, why were you rushing your 2 year old to the "ER" when a 105 deg fever is common? Is this your first kid?

    My 2 year old daughter has ran numerous 106-108+ deg fevers and the doctor always tells us to alternate between childrens tylonol and Childrens motrin every 3 hours. It normally drops/controls the fever in the low 100 range until she breaks the fever. You have to wake up throughout the night to give the medicine or the fever will spike again after the dose wears off so set your alarm.

    Keep him/her well hydrated with Pedialite(apple/grape) and check for wet diapers. If the diapers aren't wet, then get worried. Worst case scenerio is if they aren't being hydrated they will put an IV in until the fever is controllable. I've been through all this with my daughter, lol.

    Kids don't normally have an appetite while running fevers either so don't get worried if they don't want to eat, it's also normal. They will eat eventually, maybe 2-3 days later. Keeping fluids in them is the most important thing.

    You might know all this already, but if you don't I hope you don't take my advice the wrong way. Just one dad to another.
