My 8 month old baby seems to be teething badly. She has kept me up the last 2 nights crying. She had diarrhea for the last few days. she also has a runny nose, cough and a very low fever. Should I take her to the doctor or this is normal?

as far as I know, all teething babies react differently.
the first thing I did when DS was teething was give him tylenol, which usually helped
try teething toys which you put in the fridge so it can cool off the gums
you can always call your doctor though to make sure its okay
good luck!

Try rubbing Gumomile on the gums. It relieves the pain.
If you choose to give a baby tylenol for teething pain try to limit it for night use. Just giving a baby tylenol for 24 hours is hard on the liver.
Except if the child runs a high fever.
