    What is it?

    I just had a cold and now my little boy is acting different he is formula fed, but has started sleeping all day and only waking to eat (anywhere from 60-230 ml) and fuss, he is sweating alot (although its very hot) and he has less wet nappies (mayby due to his sweating it out) and raised bumps on his chest and keeps putting things in his mouth and salivating.

    Do you think he is teething my husband and his brother had teeth before 4 months and me before 5 months.
    Or do you think he is having a growth spurt or a cold lol or all of the above

    could be a bit of all the above. the bumps on his chest could be dribble rash maybe?

    I would say he has a bit of a cold, the dribbling could be because he has a sore throat. And finds it hard to swallow. Teething wouldn't cause sweating. Does he have a fever?

    Could it be roseola (sp?)? Does he have a temp? You could call 13 health if you're worried - I've found they're really good. The only way I knew for certain if DS was teething was to see teeth appear, lol! Poor little guy, so young for his first illness...
