teething question ?????? ?????

[biglipskissinunderthemistletoe]

my DD (14 mths) is teething badly (molars coming thru) and she had got a bright red runny nose (clear) and red cheeks to match.... but she is sneezing too... is she getting another cold or teething can make her sneeze?

I think some kids look like they've got a cold when they teethe.

She has probably got a cold that is coinciding with her teething.

Agree with jalopy - also, at this time of year, esp. with a first not-protected-by-Mum's-antibodies-anymore winter, runny noses and sneezles are fairly constant. At least, DD's were - it was hard to tell what was teething and what was sore throat, with the drooling, discomfort, and runny noses happening with both!

(groan!!) cold again!!! as this is her 4th cold since oct and she had only been cold free for over 2 weeks .. getting abit peed off now as feeling sorry for baba!!

My DS was always getting colds and I blamed his teething then I blamed the fact that he was going to childcare, so we switched to Soy milk and have never looked back.
