TEETHING SUX!!!!

I have been trying since 9:30 to put DS to bed..he fought me for an hour, and finally gave in, but now he wakes up five minutes after I put him down, hand in the mouth, crying.

I gave him Motrin..I gave him teething tablets...I gave him Oragel. I feel so bad for him, but I did everything I could.

Damn teeth...it's going to be a long night.

Vent over

cold facecloth??

frozen teether thingies??

i'm so sorry - it really, REALLY bites (no pun intended).

eta: i have also found putting emma's bottles in the fridge MUST feel good on her gums - she seems happier!

Re: TEETHING SUX!!!!

it really does! DD has started drooling, putting ANYTHING in her mouth and being such a crank at certain points of the day; which is SO unlike her. For us I found that putting her binkies in the freezer really helps and also Soothie makes a teething binkie as does the company Raz which is in the shape of s blueberry with a bunch of nubs on it to help soothe her gums. Other then that just orajel, baby tylenol(not the recalled one obviously) and also any teething toys......its so rough to see your little one suffering and not being able to give too much relief..I swear I wish all their teeth could come in at once!!!
