LO is ill, advice please...

[mermaid]

Fin has had a high temp for 2 days and has been very sleepy. He has no appetite other than booby milk and he isn't himself. I'm guessing it may be his molar tooth as it is just under the gum but should it go on like this? Your help is much appreciated ladies, thanks so much x

im not to sure hun but i was told that tething DOES NOT cause a high temp etc. and if u notice a high temp or other signs of illness to seea gp - thats what our GP told us anyway.

he may have a bug - cause tething doesnt cause sleepishness either...sleepishness is always a sign they are generaly unwell
actually this reminds me of when my LO had an ear infection linked to teething (infections in both ears too )

he had:

a high temp around 38.
refused to eat
sleepy
listless

i know they say they oull at there ears with an ear infection but my LO never did

id say if he is still the same 2mrw then to seea doctor if he has been like this for a few days - hoping he has a speedy recovery
