A. Hai good evening !! Check Temperature ,if baby having mild fever with low temperature they will be fussy... If you observe warm on forehead or palms or feet do sponging . Check if baby is teething,few babies might get teething early while 4-6 months,hard swollen,redishh gums, crankiness, rejecting feed,mild fever, motions,ear or jaw ache are common symptoms of teething. if teething soothe with soothers/teethers to ease from gum pain.
