My son is 6 months old his stool is a orangish color. He is teething, refusing food and has a fever. Is this normal?

Fever and reduced appetite are normal when teething. Orange stool could be from something your baby/you ate. Sucking on a cold wash cloth helps to reduce swollen gums. You can wet the cloth with distilled or purified water and place in the fridge or freezer for a few minutes. If the fever spikes over 100 and the tylenol isn't working, I would call your pediatrician.
