Tuesday she weighed 1 lb. 6.5 oz. I am increasing the amount of lactated ringers, giving her a total of 36 ml today. Shouldn't her body temperature have stabilized soon after the 1st time I gave her dextrose?
I have been giving her warmed lactated ringers. She has been on a heating pad and I gave her 1 ml dextrose (orally) this morning. The thermometer next to her reads around 85 F. This has been going on for 2 days. Her temperature is 101.4. What else should I be doing?
