Did teething affect your DC's sleeping habits?

That is the only thing that I can think of to explain DS's sudden sleep issues. He wakes up almost every hour(for the past 3 nights) and he's not hungry just cranky. When I finally get him back to sleep, I get maybe 20-30 minutes of sleep before he wakes me up again.

He has started teething, but will this last until his teeth come through??

I remember with DD we used Humphreys Teething Tablets, but she wasn't nearly as cranky as he has been.

Um, YES. In a major way. The molars were the WORST but now his canines are coming in and they're just as bad. Even naps are disrupted, he is a mess. Motrin used to be my friend but now it's not enough. Those teething tablets have worked well for us in the past, but the only thing that really helps is time.

and yes it will probably go on and off until they come through.
