You should give him plenty of weak tepid fluids before you do that. He's possibly dehydrated. Most people stop or greatly reduce peeing when they have a fever.

Also give him children's tylenol and take his temp 30 minutes later, but not right after he drinks something. This is what you would have to wait to have done in the ER, and they can get annoyed if you haven't done it first.

You can try freezing it. If you can't get fluids in him, please call your pediatrician.

Popsicles are great for kids with fevers.
