Teething or ear infection?

[CathyandHeathcliff]

Almost 8 month old DS is really crying in pain today, he was very restless last night too. Keeps pulling at both ears, dribbling a lot and biting everything in sight. He’s already cut his two bottom teeth.
He doesn’t have a temp.

Could easily be both based on your description. I'd try to see the gp tomorrow to have his ears checked out.

My daughter had an ear infection every time she cut a tooth in the first year. The doctor said it was coincidence, but coincidence my ass! My vote therefore is 'both'!
