Two tips for fevers. 40C is the point at which I would start considering calling the doctor; a lower temperature which doesn't respond within an hour to reduction measures - stripping, calpol, tepid sponging - is the other point at which I'd think about calling the doctor.

Last time we were called to take Jack from nursery he had a temp of 38.5C and had refused his tea. He was stripped to his vest, and running around the room playing with balloons... He was back at nursery the next day with a slightly runny nose and no temperature, so I hope that for both your sakes Linnea has a fast recovery.
