Neice is mashallah 11 months old now..will be 1 next month inshallah…she still has no teeth…we knw shes in pain coz she doesnt eat much and is always touching her head and ear bless her…last night she also had temp…
is there anything we can do to help her? I was telling my sister to massage a babys toothbrush on her gums to help her…
any advice? and is it normal for her not to have any teeth at this age still?
Every kid gets teeth at different age and fever, diarrhea happens with teething.
My son got most of his teeth during his first year and there were constant episodes of not eating anything at all. He would get fever, would only take milk, was very fussy and got constipated instead of getting diarrhea.
I know it is so worrisome when the child is sick. I also use a wet wash cloth on his forehead, cheeks. He sometimes liked it as it cooled him off and sometimes hated it and would not let me do it.
This was something my naani used to do.
I think unless the temperature reaches 104, the doctor will keep on saying to use tylenol etc.
Keep on monitoring the temperature.
Just be wary of that temperature. It is true that teething can be accompanied by fevers, but many people ignore other issues. Just make sure that something else is not also bothering her, like an ear infection.
shes got a really high temp too at the moment...quite concerned as shes only 11 months....docs just keep saying give her calpol...
I agree with sarad keep towel or any cloth soaked in cold water on her forehead once my daughter's temp got very high and I did the same it really helps.
but do consult doctor and try to find the cause of temperature. I hope she feels better soon
sis took her to A&E yday and docs said it was due to teething and not to worry about so inshallah she will be fine...shes the first child in our family so we all get a bit worried :)
When I was little they used to make me chew off Cocconuts when I was teething,… but I’m not sure if thats any good… cant imagine it would be but then agian I have teeth that would make a Wolf look good.
I never knew it took up to a year for a child to get teeth I thought it could happen much sooner than that… I think I had my teeth at 7 or 8 Months but then again I was chewing meat before I had teeth…
