Is he sick...is he teething??? I have no idea.

DS has been very congested and sneezing out a lot of goop. 1 day ago he had terrible diarrhea.

He also seems to be drooling a lot more and it looks like his gums might be splitting in some spots.

Can he get a cold from his teeth?? He will be 8 months on Monday. No teeth yet!

I don't know what to do...we were up ALL night. I don't feel a fever, but gave him Motrin anyway b/c he was so miserable. I have been sucking out the boogies (which he hates and makes him scream bloody murder).

I just feel so bad for him. Is there anything else I can do to make him comfortable? He refused to lay in his crib. I had him in the Nap Nanny all night (when I wasn't holding him) and he slept about 3-4 hours broken up.

He is being Baptized this Sunday so I am sweating this out right now. I need a hug Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Okay Thank You! I have been so stressed out lately and with his Christening being this weekend, this is just all we need. I hope it's his teeth, poor baby is probably getting like 4 at once. Chat Icon

Same thing happened the week before DS's 1st birthday party. He cut a tooth the week after that..

Try some saline nose drops and suction the goop out. Then try a humidifier. I gave Motrin at night to help him sleep better. Give it to him about 30-45 minutes before bed so it has time to work. Teething is horrible. My son is a slow teether. Right now he is cutting a molar. Going on about 2 weeks!!!

Thanks for the support. He hates the Saline & suction. It makes me so sad. I'm trying to make him more comfortable. I just hope it's his teeth and not something worse. I really feel at a loss until some teeth show up. I just bundled him up in a blanket and went outside for 5 mins. Thought maybe the fresh air would help.
