DD never had any problems with teething, and TBH DS(10mn) is'nt having a really bad time. But as I dont have much experience of teething problems I want to check with you all that the way he was yesterday can all be put down to teeth:

Hot cheeks,
A bit clingy and cuddly
Tired (3 or 4 lots of 30 minute naps as opposed to 1 short nap and a 2 hour nap)
slight temperature on forehead but nowhere else.
Not grumy but not interested in many toys or standing (as normaly would be)
Perks up after a dose of calpol or infant nuerofen.

Eating and drinkning is normal as is bowel movement.

He;s had bottom front teeth since 6 months and they never bothered him. His top two have just (last 2 days) broken through the gum, and I think there may be a couple more side ones on the way, but he's very selective about when he opens his mouth for me and DH to look.

I did'nt put him in a vest last night in case it was anything else and he developed a temp, he still had babygro and sleeping bag. Poor little mite woke at 4am and was very chilly, I could feel through sleeve so I had a nice long cuddle with him, fed him milk early and put him back down with an additional blanket, he then seemed fine when he woke at normal time.
