Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern.

Thanks for your query . The symptoms you mention in query are very common at this stage of life . These symptoms occur due to two reasons
- Firstly the immunity which a baby recieved from mother through plecenta get diminish by this time

- Secondly the newly developing baby's own immunity is very susceptible to even to minor infection .

These two reasons are responsible for symptoms you mention . Diarrhea and vomiting can occur due to excessive production of saliva during teething ,but it can also be a sign of more serious infection. In this case preventing baby from dehydration is most important thing.


So i would suggest you to consult pediatrician for proper examination and treatment .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
