What should I do?

Im not quiet sure if my lil man is sick or not and last time he was like this the Dr's said he was fine. He is acting completely normal, not lethargic, or cranky besides when he is tired or hungry. I think he is teething and dont know if these things are because he is teething? He wakes up sounding like he has larengitis* (like he has no voice), he sounds alittle congested but its not an all day thing, and since yesterday afternoon he has not given me a feeling full diaper(pee) and I will let him go 3-4hrs b4 I change him. Is he dehydrated? ( I have been feeding him cereal for breakfast w/ some formula, a jar of food w/ some juice for lun, and cereal w/ formula for dinner...he has bottles in between these times, and a bottle before bed) Should I be worried he isnt filling diapers w/ pee? Should I call the Dr 2morrow morning if he still isnt peeing the same??

thanks ladies

 

I say it never hurts to call the dr. when you are unsure. Let us know what he/she says.

Exactly what I was going to say.

 

Totally agree. Always better to be safe and call the doctor

I agree.

i did want to say that I have never heard it to be concerning that a child not "fill" a diaper with urine. Is the diaper wet at all? If it is wet, no matter how wet, it is probably okay but I'd say better be safe than sorry and call the doc. That's what they're there for.

This is what I think too. The only times my girls "fill" their diapers is the night time diapers b/c they are on all night.
