Just seen this tonight in ds. He doesn't seem overly bothered by it, although he has been chewing his fists for a while, and isn't very interested in his dummy.

He doesn't have a temperature, but feels hotter than normal.

ANy ideas? Will take him to GP tomorrow, but don;t want to waste her time if this is normal!!

Where is it? On his lips or in his mouth?

In his mouth, on bottom left, sort of between inside of lip and gum.

Have you ever used toothpaste? That can sometimes cause mouth ulcers, but at 11 weeks, I would imagine she hasn't yet got any teeth?

He not she sorry!

Not used any toothpaste, and no teeth yet!

Hand foot and mouth is a virus that can cause mouth ulcers. I agree, see what the doctor says.
