That's the thing Shades, it's so hard to tell!
FWIW, Arlea doesn't have red cheeks or anything either but she does have very clear, definite bumps (for the first time).
She has had colds before (just runny noses, no temps) without teething. The only hting that makes me wonder this time is that you can see in her gums, the teeth there, otherwise I would be thinking just a cold.
Sorry that's probably not much help
