Runny naps (not diarrhoea but just runnier than normal), irritability, ear infections (very common link.. DS has just got one from teething this time around), red cheeks, hot cheeks, runny nose, chewing everything, wanted to drink more and eat less, waking in the night. Also, nappy rash due to the runny naps and also their pee can become more acidic due to the changes going on in their bodies.

It is very possible but yes pays to get ears checked as the canals are so small and straight when they're young that one thing can lead on to other problems, as we have found out every time he's had a bad run with teething.

Plus, teething should never make babies sick. It can cause other things which can lead to sickness but teething alone shouldn't.

(Oh, and follow your instincts - everyone told me DS was ready for solids blah blah blah (which he was a few weeks later but not at 3 months) and 'no they don't start teething at 10 weeks' but I just knew he was. Sure enough it continued and at 4.5 months he started popping the teeth out.)]]> Mon, 17 Nov 2008 20:55:13 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22498&PID=545973&title=teething-teeth-moving-signs#545973 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22498&PID=545963&title=teething-teeth-moving-signs#545963 Author: my2girls

I found both my daughters played with their ears alot when they were teething. DD2 has two teeth and is getting another two at the moment, she has swollen gums and they look a bit red and she is dribbling heaps and playing with her ears.

emmag - barrier cream is good for the dribble rash, nappy rash cream or vaseline too. ]]> Mon, 17 Nov 2008 20:41:45 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22498&PID=545963&title=teething-teeth-moving-signs#545963 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22498&PID=545880&title=teething-teeth-moving-signs#545880 Author: townie

not sure if I am posting this in the right place but my son has such bad dribble rash on his chin and I just wondered if anyone had any great ideas about trying to clear it up?]]> Mon, 17 Nov 2008 19:09:38 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22498&PID=545880&title=teething-teeth-moving-signs#545880 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22498&PID=545158&title=teething-teeth-moving-signs#545158 Author: myfullhouse

I would take him to the dr and have him checked anyway (paranoid mother also!) as it would be his ears.

Jack's teething signs seemed to vary each time but on average he did cut a tooth every 2wks from 5mths. Some of the signs were clear runny nose, eating less, red cheeks, white patches on his gums, having trouble sleeping at night but not actually crying.]]> Sun, 16 Nov 2008 19:49:51 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22498&PID=545158&title=teething-teeth-moving-signs#545158 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22498&PID=545044&title=teething-teeth-moving-signs#545044 Author: kathyandbub

im one of those paranoid mothers always off to the docs my reasoning its that its free and better to be safe then sorry. and i was apoligising to the nurse there for it and she said thats what they are there for and they prefer people to come ion if they are not sure.on the other hand i noticed with noah he was like that about 6 weeks before his teeth came through so put it down to them movin and when they actually came through i didnt notice it at all until someone else said something lol]]> Sun, 16 Nov 2008 15:47:31 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22498&PID=545044&title=teething-teeth-moving-signs#545044 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22498&PID=545042&title=teething-teeth-moving-signs#545042 Author: tropics

Hi ladies

Im wondering if Jaydens teething? he dribbles heaps and chews on his fists which I know can be a developmental thing around 4 months but today hes been SO grizzly! like crying on and off...I rubbed bonjela on his gums and gave him pamol about half an hour ago and hes happier now! so what are the signs of teething? hes doesnt have red cheeks or anything?

his gums are quite white in places and not sure if I can feel little bumps or if its my imagination! lol

just wondering if it could be teeth or if a Dr visit in order! (dont want to be a paranoid mother!) lol

what were your first symptoms of teething? and what products are good? ]]> Sun, 16 Nov 2008 15:40:09 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=22498&PID=545042&title=teething-teeth-moving-signs#545042
