Our dd, 10 mos. old, has been running a fever all day. It was pretty high, peaking at 103.9 (I think that was the highest, she really hates when I take her temp so I haven't done it as often as I"d like). We gave her some chamomile tea a few hours ago & she's at 102.0, but she's been so sleepy(VERY unusual for this non-stop go-go baby). She'll wake up for a few minutes, play a little and then have a hard time holding her head up and babble herself to sleep. She sleeps for an hour or so & then repeats the cycle.
She's been teething up a storm, #5 & 6 broke through the other day and it looks like 7 & 8 are right there, too.
Our dr. just left his practice and we hadn't found another one...the ER here would be the last thing I'd ever want to do (I've been {mis}treated there myself)m we bought some infant tylenol in case.... but do NOT want to use it.
I guess my question is, COULD this be teething? I've heard they can spike a temp, but never heard they would be so sleepy so I'm worried it might be something else.
