Do babies get fevers when teeth come out?
My baby had a pretty alarming fever and it lasted 2 days. Before this fever we noticed a new tooth starting to show. He already has 2 bottom teeth but I don’t remember him getting a fever like this last time. Is it more common the older they get? He’s 9 months old now

I wonder the same! My LO had a fever that lasted 24hrs and no other symptoms. He had two top coming in too!
Personally no, my baby is 9 mo & has like 6 teeth and not once has she had a fever
My baby had fever with her teething plus diarrhoea and irritated then usual but only for a couple of days after it’s gone and no any other symptoms were present
My baby is 9 months, 6 teeth, 2 more coming in, never had a fever
My baby 9 months as well. Had a fever for a day and her first two teeth are coming out
I think it’s a common thing. My brother-in-law would get a fever that sent him into a seizure & it only occurred when he was cutting a tooth. Keep an eye on it obviously.

How high was the fever? Low grade is pretty typical. If it was high then likely it’s something else
