Ryan is sick.... advice please
He has really been "off" since Saturday. Yesterday during the day he was ok, but towards the later afternoon he seemed really warm on his head and neck. I took his temp and no fever. Then he woke up at 12am SCREAMING and again at 3:30 am and again at 6:00am (which is so not like him). The only thing that would console him is being held and rocked. My SIL watches him during the day and said that all day she had to hold him because if she laid him down he would cry. He also is taking FOREVER to take his bottle.
Could this be an ear infection? My friend who has a 7 month old said that her ped. told her a few signs of an ear infection are the baby crying when you lay them down and crying or discomfort when taking a bottle (the swallowing bothers them). Or could it be teething? I feel nothing coming in on his gums.. but who knows.
Right now he is finally passed out since he hasnt slept all day and I hope he doesnt have a night like last night!

It could be an ear infection or teething. DD has had similar symptoms for both. If he has another bad night I would take him to the dr. tomorrow.
Good Luck.

Sounds like an ear infection. Restless sleep and trouble with swallowing are DD's signs of one. I would call your ped.

Sounds like an ear infection to me, thats how Julia was and then I noticed that she cut 2 teeth! I took her to the Dr and he said its common to get ear infections while teething. She had the fever for a few days and was VERY clingy to me. Hope he feels better soon!

Thanks for the replies..
Ryan seems to be doing better tonight so far so we'll see how it goes. He has a well check already for Wednesday so regardless he will be going either tomorrow or Wednesday to the Dr.
