Pro tip, your hot water tap probably gets to like 120, you can mix it with cold to get 100-103 pretty easily.

Pro tip even just cracking 100 isn't really a fever, do something like 101.2 that's a fever, but not high enough to seek medical attention just yet, so there's no having to go to the hospital. A fever of 103 is something you need to checked out urgently to immediately

It depends on the person. One of my kids goes to 104 every time she gets a fever. It scared the crap out of me the first time but now I know to expect it.

That is absolutely true, but for guidelines sake, that's what we're going for here
