Teething or Cold

why does it have to be so hard to tell if your child is teething or if they are sick? In either case they are grumpy as all get out. Sammy is suffering either from teething or a cold--likely even both. He has cut one molar and I'm sure the other three are dying to make their apperance known soon. Meanwhile poor Sammy is all out of sorts, refusing to nap, cranky, runny nose, etc. I guess either way it will pass eventually. We all may just be a little ragged around the edges by the time it does (or worse--down with a cold ourselves).
