My husband, Uriel, and I are sick. Feverish and stomach issues.
We are all wearing a million layers and feel cold but are really burning up.
Shmaya, an exclusively breastfed 2 month old infant, is not having his usual yellow BMs. His BMs are brown and closer to the color of a food fed baby than a nursing baby. He's been having brown stools since friday.
His skin is cold to the touch, even though he's wearing lots of layers in an attempt to warm him up.
Can being cold be a sign of sickness? That combined with the strange poos?
Can it be diarrhea and that is accounting for the change in BMs? And the diarrhea accounting for dehydration which is causing the cold skin?
He's not lethargic and he's nursing a lot; he's his usual self aside for the really cold skin and strange poos, so I have a hard time believing he's dehydrated.
Anything to do?
Does it sound like he's sick? Dehydrated? Is there anything to do?

Do you have heat on?
it is COLD here at night... at least put a radiator on in his room.
If worried call a doctor.
He should not be cold.. how much fever (what temp) do you all have ?

I don't know what temperature we have...
