Sick or Teething?

Well, Colin was pretty lethargic this evening. He just laid in Miguel's arms for an entire hour without moving or making a peep. I knew at that point that something was wrong. I took his temperature, and it was 100.7, so I gave him some Tylenol, and out him to bed.

Miguel will be staying home with Colin tomorrow b/c I have to work, and I just want to be sure that I have someone who can take him to the doctor if need be (my mom doesn't have a carseat...or a safe car for that matter).

According to the doctor today, Colin's teeth can cut at any time...and I'm hoping that this fever is just from him teething (finally)...but, he does have a runny nose and he is congested again tonight, so I'm not sure.

I hate seeing my poor baby sick :(

  1. Sometimes congestion goes along with teething and it can be pretty miserable for them, but there's no way to know for sure until whatever it is develops into a true cold and/or those teeth break through.

    Feel better, Colin!

  3. This is a horrible question...
    How is his poopy? Katie's was always different when she was teething. Anyway, just something to consider.

  4. Hmmm. I didn't know about the congestion or the poop. Good to know.

    I just got home from work, and he is running a low-grade fever again.
