2 year old with a fever :( how to break it?
Why do you want to break it? is he miserable? Is it high? Fevers can be a good thing.
how high is his temp? fever is the body's way of fighting the bug so you actually don't want to give him medicine unless it's really high (102+) OR he's uncomfortable. keep him in cool clothes with a light blanket and let it run it's course.
I would try either or both of those

poor guy. you could either watch it for an hour or try motrin.
just tell hubby to simmer on the meds for the lower temps though :) hope he feels better soon!
Quoting 3mommyandwifey:
Its 102. Dh loves to give him medicine to break it. I am hoping its gone in a few hours.
