Is He Teething?

I have had an awful Christmas.Since Christmas Eve, my five month old son has had a temperatire, and he been a cranky little bugger! He seems to have broken his temperature now, but he is still very irritable, and not sleeping half as well as he used to.He is chewing on everything, and seems comforted when I rub his gums.I thought that I could feel a tooth coming through, but it has gone now. Does this sound like he is teething?

Hi,
My little girl Ella is 6months old and does the same thing regularly. Every couple of weeks since she was 4months old lasting from a few days to 1.5weeks she gets bright red cheeks, dribbles constantly and chews everything, all accompanied by crankiness... then it all settles down... still no teeth!!

Why does it have to be so awful for the poor little bubbas?

Good luck!!

My son Corey (9 1/2months old). Has been doing exactly the same thing since Saturday, we noticed today that we could see 2 teeth coming thru the gum line. He has 5 teeth & ever since the 1st tooth came thru he has the same simptons as your little one.
All we do is Panadol, bonejela & plenty of cuddles & kisses.
Good luck
