Did your LO had a fever while teetering?

Hello! My LO is 14 months old and last Wednesday he developed a cold , 3 days after that he had a fever in the night . And since yesterday he was doing quite well , today everything cleared out and now he woke up with a fever again,38.9 . He’s also teething, his lateral incisor is very swollen and his molar as well , I’ll say worse than it looked during the day . So I’m not sure anymore if it’s related to the cold or teething or if I’m missing something and maybe I’ll have to get him checked. He’s doing well , having regular wet nappy’s , eating and drinking as normal and very active as usual. Not sure how to manage the situation xx

Ive heard the molars are savage and can cause a fever. Give him calpol to help with the temp and dress in light clothing. I always advocate for getting them checked out if you are concerned. I just took my boy to the emergency room last night as he came out in a rash after 3 days of fever (roseola they think). I’m glad I went and I feel more relaxed.

With our boy it can cause a slight temp, like 37. Anything 38 or over tends to be because of an infection, viral etc. I would definitely get your LO checked over especially with him having other symptoms too. Good signs with his nappies, eating and fluids and being active still but I always think better to be safe than sorry x

It can, but no higher than 37.9. Everyone kept telling me that my sons fever was just his teeth but I knew it wasnt to took him the doctors & he has an ear infection. Possibly its been caused by the molars but it needed antibiotics x

Thank you all ❤️

He’s got his molars 🦷 now and touch wood we’ve not had any high temps or long nights with him , no red rosy cheeks, he’s nearly got a full set of baby teeth now aswell he’s smashed the teething stage 💙
