Hi, I have a five month old daughter. She woke up with a strange cry and I nursed her until she feel back asleep. I felt her head and it felt cold to the touch. Just to assure myself, I felt her belly and legs under the covers expecting them to feel warm, but she felt cold there, too, even through her sleeper. I took her temperature underarm while she slept, and it read 95.8 with one thermometer and 96.5 with another. From what I ve been reading, the underarm reads lower than usual, but this seems to be a normal range for this type of temperature reading. I have had a cold for the past few days and I m worried she will catch it. Is being cold to the touch a sign of illness? Just as a note, her back feels warm and even sweaty against the mattress, but the rest of her body feels noticeably cold to the touch. This seems especially strange to me under the covers, where it seems she should feel warm.
