   Just a question..
 
 Can teething give you a high temp?
 I had to get Kylah from daycare today because she had/has a 39 degree temp..
 She doesnt seem sick, she dancing to music now but is really hot?
 Shes got no clothes on and a bottle of water, she wont let me near her with a cold fannel..
 
 What else should i do? Im going to give her a lukewarm bath if she doesnt start cooling down.
 
 Daycare gave her pamol

   I'm pretty sure if she's got a temp, it won't be from teething.  From as far as I'm aware, a fever comes when the body is fighting an infection.  Hopefully it will settle down soon for her.

   I always understood that teething couldn't give a child a fever. Maybe ears? You'll wanna head to the nearest doctors if it goes over 39deg. Remember to keep her fluids up.

   They say teething doesn't cause a temp but Jack has sometimes had random high temps when teething.
 
 Another possibility is tonsilitis. Jack had it about a week or so before xmas. He seemed relatively fine, still ate pretty well but had high temps on and off for nearly a week. I would try heading to the doctors in the morning just to dble check. All I could do for him was alternate pamol and ibuprofen to keep the temp down

   i was at the doctor yesterday with my wee man, due to him being generally very unwell and had a high temp,  i asked her if teething caused a temp and she said no,  although it did turn out he had infected ears and tonsilitis so no wonder he was so hot and grizzly.

   Well Kylahs temp is 39 now, we are off to the doc in 10 mins.. 
 Shes now not happy, and just laying down without moving anywhere like she has no energy.
 I cant believe shes sick again
