Uh oh. Maybe dropping to two pumps isn't such a good idea -- especially since she is drinking some milk ... when she is awake. I got only 7.5 ounces this morning

Oh no..It sounds like she might be sick, but I don't know much about the difference between teething and being sick. I would call the doctor just to be on the safe side. Poor baby..and poor mama. *hugs*
I would DEFINITELY take her to the pediatrician--her wanting to sleep all the time and not be active at all is NOT very common in the teething world--she's acting more sick than anything else. If it's a bacterial infection, she could be put on antibiotics. I'd rather be safe than sorry!
I can imagine how worried and uncertain you must feel now. My instincts say to call if you havent already--it could just be a flu (the fever has gone done, I hope). Did the pedi check Morella's hemoglobin yet? If not, please consider asking they check it. A lot of her recent symptoms sound similar to anemia. And anemia can be worse during viral infections.
We're dealing with anemia over here--I have a month to try to get Sakke's hemoglobin up through dietary measures or else they want to get him on an iron supplement.
I saw your facebook update, and I tried to comment about 10 times, but everything I was typing sounded stupid. I guess what I should have said is that I hope it turns out not as serious as your status suggests. I'm so worried for you and Morella, and I am sending a million best wishes, and magic dust your way. Wish I were closer and could actually DO something useful.
I just saw Tim's update, and hope it's okay if I post it here, for anyone worried: Morella has a bad ear infection and is having surgery tonight. She'll be in the hospital for a couple days on IV antibiotics. Poor girl!
oh, no, Laura! I just saw your status on Facebook and I've been trying to find out what's going on. Is Morella really having surgery? I'm so sorry! I hope you are all ok..I'm soo glad you went to the hospital. They will take good care of her. You are all in my prayers!! (((((((((hugs))))))))!!!
