Hello and welcome to HCM, Fever is a single symptom in infants which accompanied large number of disorders in infants. A clinical assessment of all organ systems is required to find out the cause of infection. As you have mentioned that your baby suffered from pneumonia, there is a possibility that the pneumonia has re-cured. I suggest you to consult your pediatrician for clinical assessment and investigations
Thanks and take care Dr Shailja Puri
