Baby sleeping a lot during teething

[maybaby28]

Hello,

my babies 7.5 months and the teething has come on a lot more this past week, I noticed yesterday he was splitting his bottles etc, so he’s been having the usual Calpol, ibuprofen, teething powders. He’s got no temperature but just seems absolutely shattered. He sleeps really well 7-7 with one feed at 10pm, he stirred once at 2am last night but went back to sleep without much fuss but today he’s just shattered. Slept until 8, had a nap at 10 and now again. He’s never been a brilliant napper, has about an hour and a half absolutely maximum over two naps a day. So this is just out of character?

I guessed he’d sleep less teething but has another experienced their baby sleeping more? Just want to be sure it’s that really

thanks in advance xx

Sounds like he is unwell. Sleeping lots and vomiting.

What makes you think he is teething?

He’s not been sick, splitting bottles as in he’s not taking it all at once. He has some and then more a while after.

Bright red cheeks so are some parts of his gums, I can see one tooth cutting through his bottom gum and he’s needing to bite and chew everything. All the usual signs of teething I guess.
