17 week old baby with snotty cold, teething and mucus in nappy

I am ebf my 17 week old. She has a very snotty cold and is teething. she has done four poos in the last 24 hours - normally she only does one or two in 48 hours. They weren't big, but two of them had translucent yellow strings of mucus in them. Should I go to docs with her, or does this sound normal? I presume she must be swallowing some of her nose snot (sorry!), which is coming out in nappy.

She doesn't have a temperature and seems ok in herself. She's feeding ok and we're getting lots of wet nappies.

Thnaks in advance.

My two always had nasty nappies when teething, and also got sore bottoms. If she seems happy I wouldn't worry. Keep using the teething gel and teetha sachets, my two started teething at 4 months and stopped at about 18 months. But the longer it went on, the more they got used to it all I found and woke less at night.

Welcome to the teethig stage Wink
