during the day a bit of frozen pear / melon helps alice. ive never had major problems with her at night, so i don't have advise/suggestions for that.

I can't think of anything else at the moment...

I'll give you a buzz in a second Twinny but I would take him to the doctor tomorrow to get him checked over. Maybe he has an ear infection particularly as he just had a cold recently? Ear pain gets much worse when lying down.
Also...could be reflux (???) if worse lying down.
Poor you and poor Christopher.

I would take him to the docs asap. An ear infection can sometimes be mistaken for teething, the red ears are making me think that.
