Baby Has Fever, But Hands Feel Very Cold. Vomits After Feeding Sometimes. Reason?

my 19 week baby has fever but her hands feel very cold , she hasnt been sleeping well because of her fever. I dont know wether she is teething , or something else. She throws up at times after feeding. I really dont know what is wrong and i cant get enough sleep but just watch her even when i feel really tired because i m always thinking something might go really wrong.

Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,



Thanks for writing to health care magic.



Does she have other problems like poor feeding?

from when she is having all these problems?

Is she showing abnormal activity or seizures?

Is she dull and lethargic?



answer these questions so that i can help you better.



From the description you provided i feel that your baby requires immediate medical attention.



Fever in this age group (I hope you noted the temperature with a thermometer) with cold hands and feet indicate dangerous conditions. your baby is having another danger sign that is vomiting.



Such a scenario could arise because of bacterial infection in body .............. called sepsis.





You may contact me with further details on the following URL...........
