I think all of my kids ate paper at some point. One child ate the wrapping paper on her first birthday. She is nine now and doesn't do that anymore. :) It is just a phase and will stop. Just watch her closely and try to stop her when you can though they are quick. I am pretty sure the fever is not related to the paper eating...it was probably just a virus. They usually are.

a sign of being anemic is eating paper, dirt, etc, did the doc check her blood work?

My son gets into the magazines and notebooks all the time and always manages to bite off and eat a little. I don't really think a little paper can hurt... Just make sure that your baby isn't choking on the paper. i think eating paper is just another thing that babies just do. I'm sure the fever was just a virus.. and it was just a coincidence that it happened the same time she ate paper.

Probably just a passing virus. My baby ate paper about that age and she still does!! Shes never got sick from it and her doctor said its just a phase that she will grow out of! Good luck i know they are fast eating paper!!!
