Dehydration?

Hi,

When I changed my 15 month old's nappy this morning, it was completely dry. Do you think I should be worried? He does have a cold at the moment and didn't drink very much yesterday, no matter how many times I offered water. He's also got dark circles under his eyes but I put this down to tiredness as he hasn't slept much because of the cold.

At what point do you think I should speak to a doctor?

Thanks
