teething!

hi everyone just after some advice really. My 5 month old I believe is teething, however I'm concerned about her mill intake has decreased the last couple days, she's sleeping more too so sometimes skips feeds. Should I wake her? Do you think there is more to this than teething? She's more irritable than normal too. Temp is normal

hi! My lo is 10months and every time we have a teething episode he sleeps a lot long, sometimes double the normal nap length and is just chronically unhappy when awake. I think from my experience this is just perfectly normal. Feeds change too and as long as they are having plenty of wet nappies I wouldn’t worry. If it seems like they are maybe getting dehydrated then obviously wake and feed but sounds like it should be fine and will pass in a few days. Good luck!
