Growing Pains??

Question
Dutches is 4 months old (Born 7/7/08) and two days ago started wimpering or yelping with no apparant reason.  Can this be from teeth coming or growing pains.  Yesterday she was fine and today she is sleeping a lot, wimpers and yelps.  Taking to vet later today but would like to know if normal.

Answer
Hi - No I don't think this is normal.... Have her checked for a urinary tract infection... She should not be sleeping so much.  That tells me she may have a little infection.
Let me know what the vet says...
OK?

Good Luck
