Can this really be from teething?

Poor Emma has had mucasy, loose stools since Thursday, and they've been increasing in numbers daily.  Sunday it was 4ish, Monday it was 5, and yesterday it was 6.  She woke up at 12:30 last night, and had 2 more bm's, but this time they were like runny sand.  She has no fever, and she's been eating just fine, with the exception of a middle of the night bottle - she did the arched back refusal.  Anyone experience this with teething?  Could the extra saliva be aggravating her reflux? 

Oh, and her poor little bum is SO red!  This is our first diaper rash.  We've been using Bordeaux's.  Any better options out there?

    Definitely from too much saliva....I found that Bordeaux's didn't help my LO when she had a red bum from trying to push what seemed to work for me was Triple Paste.

    I can't help you with the teething question, Ebee has no teeth. But, a friend of mine says the Burt's Bees Diaper Creme is wonderful.

    I hope she feels better soon!  O has only had diaper rash a few times but Bordeaux's worked great for us :)

    Poor Emma! I am sorry I have no advice as we have not gone through this yet, but we use CA baby rash cream and it works great!  Also, let her air out for a while during the day or evening. That should help.

    That happened to Adeline with her first tooth. We used Super Dooper Diaper Doo, cloth wipes with just warm water (the regular wipes can be really irritating to a diaper rash) and did 15-20 minutes of naked time on a mat after every diaper change.
