My son is teething, and the past 2 days is very lethargic, (moving slower and everything) also very cuddly which is unusual for him. Its almost impossible to take his temperature, he feels a little warm, but thinking its just his teeth.]]> Sat, 24 Jun 2017 00:43:50 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40817&PID=5905514&title=teethinglethargic#5905514 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40817&PID=1401194&title=teethinglethargic#1401194 Author: Babe

So after posting this we went on holiday and I couldn't access OB!
He was only lethargic for the day and it was definitely the worst pain day for him, so I think it must have been the teething.

I was close to going to the doctor but he was so happy when he woke up so all good :D

I can be a worry mum sometimes!]]> Mon, 24 Oct 2011 15:02:32 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40817&PID=1401171&title=teethinglethargic#1401171 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40817&PID=1400704&title=teethinglethargic#1400704 Author: EmDee

I don't think it's too unusual for kids to be a bit lethargic when teething. I know when I'm experiencing pain, I certainly don't feel like running around!

My kids can get really cuddly and disinterested in playing (though I've found it depends on the child and which teeth are coming through too).

If you are at all concerned take him to see your Dr ]]> Fri, 21 Oct 2011 13:28:32 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40817&PID=1400704&title=teethinglethargic#1400704 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40817&PID=1400676&title=teethinglethargic#1400676 Author: Babe

Both my kids got/get lethargic when teething. DS2 is pushing eye teeth through ATM and all he wants to do is sleep or cuddle really. If you're worried or if theres anything else going on that could indicate something else going on I'd err on the side of caution and pop into the docs ]]> Fri, 21 Oct 2011 12:34:03 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40817&PID=1400676&title=teethinglethargic#1400676 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40817&PID=1400469&title=teethinglethargic#1400469 Author: JadeC

I would see a dr about lethargy, to be honest. I know teething can have a range of side-effects but that one would worry me.]]> Thu, 20 Oct 2011 20:04:55 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40817&PID=1400469&title=teethinglethargic#1400469 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40817&PID=1400416&title=teethinglethargic#1400416 Author: MamaT

My DS always gets an ear infection and runny nose when he gets teeth, so is constantly tired, clingy and upset when teeth come through. He usually gets a temp with it all.
So, I would say completely normal, but he could also be coming down with something, either caused by or despite of teething.
I would just give him lots of quiet time and cuddles with mummy ad if your breastfeeding, lots of milk.

Every child is different and what might me normal for one, could e completely out of character for another. If you are at all concerned, get it checked out.]]> Thu, 20 Oct 2011 16:35:16 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40817&PID=1400416&title=teethinglethargic#1400416 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40817&PID=1400313&title=teethinglethargic#1400313 Author: Tan1

Hi,

I have a great baby book and in it they say "teething causes nothing but teeth" any symptoms a baby has when teeth are coming through is usually just coincidence. This is how I like to think of it.

However, a girlfriend of mine is on the otherside of the spectrum and believed that when her kids were getting teeth it would cause them to get sick and have rashes on their bums etc.

Perhaps he is coming down with something?]]> Thu, 20 Oct 2011 13:01:58 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40817&PID=1400313&title=teethinglethargic#1400313 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40817&PID=1400258&title=teethinglethargic#1400258 Author: SethsMama

My DS is teething at the moment. He has a temperature (but only a slight one) and is really lethargic.
I was wondering if anyone else has had their child be lethargic while teething?
He tends to be drowsy when he's getting sick so I was just wondering if maybe it's his way of dealing with pain or maybe it's him coming down with something.
Any thoughts?]]> Thu, 20 Oct 2011 10:40:06 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40817&PID=1400258&title=teethinglethargic#1400258
