my 5 month old girl has a slight fever and has a small white lump on her gum which looks quite inflamed. She has been sleeping a lot the last week, and the last 2 days has been very grumpy. could this be teething? Also, how high do temperatures tend to get when a babys teething?
Is she teething??
Welcome to the wonderful world of a teething baby!
Well, the temp should never go above 102. If this happens, contact the pedi just to be safe.
Both of my daughters started teething at about 5 months old. My 20 month old now has all of her teeth...it can be a difficult stage, but I found a LIFE SAVER! They are called Hylands Homeopathic Teething Tablets. They are 100% all natural and dissolve INSTANTLY on baby's tounge. A bottle of 125 is only about $5.00. Look it up online - they're GREAT!
We seriously lost zero sleep through the teething period by using these...good luck to you!
Reply:sounds like it. just a low grade fever.
Reply:teething usally cause a low grade fever and lots of drooling
Reply:Cheryl is correct! Our peditrician recommended the Teething Tablets and they work like magic. Our daughter opens her mouth when I rattle the bottle! Try giving her the Teething Tablets and a cold teething ring. If that doesnt stop her being fussy then give Tylenol.
I would check with your Dr about any fever though.
