UPDATE!
MYTH‼️
A fever doesn’t always mean something scary is going on 🙌🏼

🌡️Fevers are actually the body’s natural way of fighting infection, and most are not dangerous. What matters most is how your child is acting overall.

• Under 3 months: Call for 100.4°F or higher
• Over 3 months: Call if fever lasts more than 3 days or comes with concerning symptoms

MYTH vs FACT: A fever always means something serious🤒

👇Drop you guess below!

When in doubt, we're always here to help 🫶

💖🌸 Happy Valentine’s Day from Bloom Pediatrics! 🌸💖

🍫🥰Wishing your family a day full of love, laughter, hugs, and maybe a little chocolate too!

🎨We know some of our Bloom kiddos have been working VERY hard on their Valentine’s Day boxes…
(and we see you too, parents 👀 hot glue burns and last-minute glitter runs count as cardio, right? 😆)

📸 Parents, drop a photo of your child’s Valentine’s box in the comments below! Whether it’s 100% kid-created or a “family collaboration,” we can’t wait to see all the creativity! ❤️✂️
