  1. Signs of Illness

Fever

Temperature of 100.4 F or higher. Don't have a thermometer? That's ok! Other signs of fever can include:

  • Feeling flushed

  • Waking up drenched in sweat- some people sweat so much when they have a fever that they can wring out their shirts after they wake up

  • Having chills or shivering even though you're not cold
