DS had a fever for 4 days and has been grizzly / not eating really but otherwise not too bad for another 2 so far. He's barely sleeping and is just really unsettled. Is this normal?

Have you taken him to the Doctors?

Yes - yesterday and the Dr said slapped cheek. I've had a bit of a rummage and i think it might be a tooth coming too - one of his front ones has dropped quite low but the actual 'cutting surface' is still quite thick...

Sorry I'v never heard of slapped cheek. But yes the being grizzly, unsettled and off solids sounds pretty normal to me if he's teething. Is he getting lots of milk and fluids?
