We use essential oils (gasp!). Haven't taken our kids to the urgent care in 5 years (except the knife/stitches incident).

Works wonders. Good investment. Keeps out of pocket health care costs low.

For a 103 fever we'd give them regular doses of Peppermint, Lime, Doterra On Guard, Melissa, Oregano, Thyme. Gradually subsides and they move on with life.

Good luck. Trust your gut. You'll know when it's necessary to take the little one in if you need to.
