And how are teeth coming along?  Our 15 month old went through the same thing for about 3 months, and she only ever wanted Daddy!!!!  For her, it was her teeth and now that they have finally come through, she is much happier and back to wanting Mummy!!!! Yay! lol.

No matter now easy the teething process is for a baby, the molars are always going to be the ones to cause the biggest hassles and he should be getting them by now, even if they are just still moving below the gum line.

I think it is possible that this is an indication of something else..

I would call his doc immediately

cass i think i would take him to the docs just to be on the safer side, poor little man, get better quick little man, u have a party to attend!

it could be sore throat. Have you tried pain reliever (panadol)?
