Dear Ask The Doctor: At what temp should i take my 8 month old to the er Dear Dana: Temperatures above 38°C (100.4°F) rectally are considered as fever. With the rise in temperature above 38.9°C( 102°F), the risk of dehydration and other complications increase, so you need to take your baby to the ER for immediate treatment, when the temperature nears 102°F.
