Can Tooth Development Make A Child Cry Severely In The Night?
Hi Doctor, My boy 6 months and 10 days old (entered 7th Month). I feel he is developing teeth as he pull as objects to bite or chew. However i am worried with his routine from last two days. Gets up suddenly in the night and cries a lot as if he is under some severe pain or scared. Also today he started going for frequent stools and happens right after eating.Is this because of the tooth development phase. Please help me out to stop stools and for to back to his normal routing. Another concern is , his weight is 7.5 KG now and was 2.6 KG when he was born.Is his weight now ideal or has put on more? Regards, Keerthi Reddy
