Is 37°C fever normal for a 1-month-old?

A 1-month-old's temperature of 37°C, if measured from the armpit, is considered on the upper end of normal range. At this age baby's body temperature isn't fully stable yet—36.5-37.5°C is generally normal. However, at 1 month, immunity is still very weak, so 38°C and above requires urgent evaluation.
Make sure you're measuring temperature correctly—digital armpit thermometer is most reliable. If baby's alertness, feeding, and wakefulness are good, 37°C alone isn't alarming. But for any temperature increase in a 1-month-old, I recommend asking your pediatrician—"wait and see" isn't recommended at this age.
