My 7 month olds temperature was 39.4, i gave her calpol and an hour later its 38.5 (we rung 111 and are taking her to A&E) but could this be due to teething or something else?

Does is have mucus coming out of her nose? Have you tried freezing her dummy and giving it to her, or making her bottle slightly warmer to soothe her gums?

Not likely… I’d imagine it’s due to a little viral infection. It’s the season!
Also, sometimes babies just get a little temperature and nothing really is wrong per se. They just like to keep us on our toes!

My little girl had a temp spike of 38.5 this morning and I wondered the same as she's been dribbling a lot and has a flushed cheek but teething shouldn't cause a fever. It could be the start of an ear infection. I gave Calpol and her temp came down... today is lots of cuddles and keeping her fluids up ensuring she still has her normal amount of wet nappies

My little one had a temperature at 10 months old that quickly spiked to 41 due to a middle ear infection and a febrile seizure so it's good that you've caught it early. ❤️

Probably not teething. They can get a slight raised temp with teething but I wouldn’t expect it to be 38 or above. It’s likely viral. I would monitor and keep an eye on the amount they are eating and the amount of nappies but if that’s all fine, I’d just treat at home. They get temperatures all the time even for a slight colds.
my bf just told me i need to go on walks because all i do is lay around and sleep... when i work full time still, manage to take the dog out when it's time and actively clean up around the house ?! i got upset bc it's like he's implying i don't do anything but sleep/ lay around but i only do on my days off... when all of it was a reminder to do his hair when he gets off work ? tb "you can go on a walk bc your body will be tired a lot some i'm not used, im playing around bc i used to burn 400+ calories a day".

My son is 13 months, had a fever over the weekend and had lighter nappies. Had HFMD the weekend before but that cleared up last week. Fever is down but he hasn't peed all day. Nappy this morning was so light and wee was concentrated and smelly. Have him electrolytes yesterday but today he's refusing. He's been drinking milk and water, but still no pee. He had a soiled nappy but no wee. He's also had reduced appetite. Vomited once yesterday. 111 referred me to my GP but they're going to close in an hour and are taking long to pick up anyways. Thinking to just take him to A&E? Im unsure when to wait until as I have no idea when he last actually peed, as he's been drinking today so should've weed
Anyone had something similar? I'm thinking it's different to the hand foot and mouth as the sores are gone but could it be related?
