My Baby Has Fever Of 102 And Foul Smelling Bowel Movement
my baby has been running a fever of 102 on and off for the pass week and she has foul smelling bowel movements, she cries like she is in major pain and just lay around lethargic and teething could she be sick or just teething?

102 temperature is unlikely due to teething. if your child is lying down sick as well, please take her to hospital & get her evaluated with blood, urine & stool evaluation.

Hi, welcome to healthcare magic. Fever, foul smelling stools are a sign of infection. And the child is crying because of the bowel cramps as a result of intestinal spams. I would advise you to immediately consult a Pediatrician and start the antibiotics and further treatment.
