Krystiana has quickly got herself some bright red cheeks tonight, has been unusually grizzly today, and has a temp of 38.2 
Teething doesn't cause fever though, does it? -------------  |

I think over 38 is probably more than teething. Fay ran a low grade temp of about 37.5 while she has been teethng this week. Mind you don't listen to me I put her kidney infection down to teething until her temp hit 38.9 eeek.
Can you get her checked out anywhere tonight just in case, its on the high side I think (If it was a patient at work I would advise them to get it checked and look for other symptons) ------------- http://www.babysfirstsite.com">

I agree, she doesn't look too well, poor wee thing! And if the weather there is anything like it is up here it's so cold and miserable you'd be loathe to take a sick child out in in to the doctor
Has she had Pamol? Has it made any difference to the fever? ------------- Maya Grace (28/02/03)

oooh porr little darling. Hope she will be ok soon. Harlan did not have a red nose, and generally only one side (cheek) was red. Temp was up as well. Good Luck. ------------- Harlan Drew DOB: 06.12.06 & Stepmum to Ethan & Christian, DOB: 25.02.99 |

I gave her Pamol in between those two posts (of mine), she was really tired so I have put her to bed but I'll check her before I go down. If she's still like that in the morning I'll have to take her to the after hours. Beats me why kids don't all get sick on Mondays! ------------- |

Being sick at the weekend is part of the baby rule isn't it? Hope you get a good night ------------- http://www.babysfirstsite.com">

Yep, babies only know how to get sick on weekends. I spent six weekends in a row at Starship with Maya when she was 9 months old, yet during the week she seemed to be fine ------------- Maya Grace (28/02/03)

My neighbours little girl (now 3) always got a fever when she was teething. She would get so sick, poor wee thing, that more often than not, it was off to A & E in the wee smalls, or cold baths at about midnight-2am to try and bring the fevers down. This probably isn't that helpful, but thought I'd put my 2 cents in anyway ... I hope she gets better soon busymum! ------------- Cuinn Lachlan 23.1.09 - 22:00 Antonia Helene 4.8.11 - 09:41 |

Seems to be better this morning; certainly the rash and fever have died down. ------------- |

Kryssi had a really long sleep this afternoon, when she finally woke I went to get her and half of her sheet was wet from vomit, as well as all her clothes and hair - and it was green 
Got her up and changed and fed and yep she chucked again, all over me! Not just a power chuck but a series of tummy clenches. She's a bit pale now, no fever or red cheeks anymore, she has now had a feed and kept it down... I suspect she'll sleep long tonight (she's just started sleeping through this week but I haven't given her any solids for dinner so we'll see). Poor girl, and here's hoping it doesn't pass on to any of us - and that she gets better soon.------------- |

Poor thing, and poor mum having to watch her be sick too, it's no fun seeing our babies not feeling well.
Hope she's better soon. |
