Pls help--does teething cause a fever?

daycare just called and DS has a 102.1 temp---he was fussy overnight and this morning.....no fever. But he's teething like crazy--just broke through (bottom teeth). Leaving to go and pick him up now.....but wondering if I should be worrying about something else??

Re: Pls help--does teething cause a fever?

  • Teething can cause a fever, but that is a little high based on what my pedi told me and what I have read. ?Babies run high fevers though, so I wouldn't be overly concerned. ?That said, I would call the doc when you get home just to check in, it would suck if it went higher in the evening and the office was already closed.

  • My pedi told me anything over 101 is not related to teething. Give him tylenol and if the fever doesn't improve, I would call the pedi.

    G/L?
