My DD has red cheeks all of the sudden! She doesn't have a fever. She's been having teething symptoms since 3.5 months and her bottom 2 erupted a few weeks ago, at 6 months. Doesn't look like the top 2 are coming in yet so I'm not sure why her cheeks are suddenly red :shrug: She's acting normal and as you can see in the pic, she's quite happy :) I do kiss her cheeks A LOT. hundreds of times a day...not exaggerating at all :D
disclaimer: the small scratch on her nose was self-inflicted & is unrelated :haha:

I have no idea but I also HAD to comment on how CUTE she is!
 
Hahaha! Thanks anyways everybody :D I have to agree that she is quite cute, but I'm biased being her mother and all :haha:
 
Teething would be my guess :)

Hannah's cheeks went rosy any time she had a tooth coming in though oddly enough Rhys's don't (which is kinda funny since he's lighter skinned and I would think it'd show more on him :rofl:)
 
I would think teething too but they already came through her gums and on the top 2 I can't see inflammation. Anyone's LO get rosy cheeks after teeth already erupted? I just think its strange that it came on so suddenly :shrug:
 
I was going to say teething, and my goodness she is a doll!
 
I would guess teething as well! More could be coming in! Eli hasn't stopped teething since his first one popped through!

She is gorgeous <3
 
Joni gets red cheeks all the time and I think it's teething even though a tooth doesn't always come through... They're probably shifting about under the gums. Your lo is adorable xx
 
Very common and typical teething symptom especially if the cheeks are warm too x
 
I agree with the lady who said they're probably just shifting around under her gums, my daughter had permanent red cheeks forever with no teeth. They've come through now (bottom two) and she still gets red cheeks with no sign of any more.

Also, OMG. She is beautiful :cloud9:
 
Thanks ladies! I didn't think about them shifting under the gums :dohh: her cheeks were a little bit warm to the touch & they do seem less red this morning anyways. I guess I'm just a paranoid mama!
 
She's such a cutie. Beautiful smile :) and I'd say teething aswell.
