9 Months Baby, Sweating, Waking At Night, Crying, Not Having Food. Teething Starting. Cause Of Problem?
My son is one & 9 months and been waking up for the last 5 nights screaming and crying as if something hurts but he only wants me to hold him as if he was scared and starts to sweat uncontrollably, I dong know what's going on? His body is cold and he is seating, he don't want to eat much I thought it's because he is getting his back teeth in but I'm not sure anymore, what can b the problem?
