teething
As you all know Gabe is really ill, he is slightly better but still wheezy and coughing badly, nose streaming. He is also cutting 2 bottom teeth and they are very close to the surface - very very close!
Anyway he is refusing milk, could it be down to teething? He's averaging about 10-12oz a day and will only feed when he's really hungry. He's refusing solids too, particularly at tea time. I think he is losing weight as he seems to be fitting better into sleepsuits that had previously seemed a bit small (oh bought me a smaller one by mistake & didnt realise :roll: ) He doesnt seem to be getting any bigger if that makes sense?? Has dropped a centile too.
Getting him weighed on thurs...I wish he would eat and these stupid teeth would cut!!!! x

Have you tried putting on the bonjela and/or giving teething powder just before you feed him?
It could be the poorliness as well that's affecting his appetite.
Hope he feels better soon.

Thanks everyone, hope these babies cut their teeth & feel better soon. It must be soooo painful for them! I am giving Gabe medised before bed time and it has been a lifesaver.
My mum says me & my sister always had bad colds and cut teeth at the same time & mil who has 4 reckons they did too....I'm really hoping!! x
Sorry not much help but i reckon most likely the reason for Gabe refusing milk. Hope they cut soon! xx
Hopefully it will pass soon - for both of us!

it's not his teat size is it?
As the kids Christmas song goes "All I want for Christrmas is my 2 front teeth......."!!!!
