Teething causes low grade fevers??????
DS is 4m and definitely teething. Chomping on everything, sucking his hands, drooling and grumpy. He has had a low grade fever (around 100) on and off for a few days now. I am thinking it is the teething but worried there could be something wrong which would cause the on and off fever. Whats your thoughts on this?

Re: Fact or Fiction
My pediatrician told me that teething doesn't cause a fever HOWEVER, teething causes swollen and irritated gums and the swollen and irritated gums can cause a low grade fever. Anything over 101 likely isn't a teething fever.
But, I haven't bothered to have that info corroborated.

Fiction for me but others say fact. Like everything else I think it depends on the kid.

Re: Fact or Fiction
My kids never had fevers when teething but then they also never really "teethed" either. There was nothing out of the ordinary with their behavior when a tooth cut. Teeth would just pop up and I'd barely notice unless I was looking for them.

My DS ALWAYS had a fever (low grade) when he was teething so for me - fact.
We'll see what happens with DD when she starts
