    Hi my 6 week old daughter has literally turned into an antichrist the last 2 days,she is screaming till she's blue in the face for a few hours and I'm seeing signs of a small rash on her face,could she be teething this early?
    Is it ok to give her some calpol?

    I don't think she's teething - more likely to be wind/colic. Try making sure she's well burped after feeding, you can use infacol if you feel she needs help getting the wind up. The rash could be any number if things, but young babies do tend to get spots - google infant acne, milk spots and cradle cap. You can't give calpol until she's three months old.

    Unfortunately we can't give medical advice, get the rash checked out.
