AHHHGGGHHHH!!! Teething sucks! Gracie went from never crying or being fussy to an almost constant state of fussiness! Yes, she has moments of cuteness and is all and all a good baby. It just feels like someone swapped out my girl with this new cranky creature! The thing that tops it all off. is that just last week she realized that she has vocal chords and likes to scream in every
octave known to man... and the high pitched one is her fave.... So instead of my quiet little angel that loves to smile and laugh, she uses an ear shattering scream to get my attention!
Pam Tovic said it best "Good things babies are cute, otherwise we would throw them out the window."
More than anything, I just want my baby to feel better, I hate to see her in pain. It breaks my heart. Since she is such a good baby, I know she really must be hurting to be this fussy.
I am using the Highlands Teething tablets, and they seem to work somewhat... Anybody have any other tricks that they use to get through this? (for both baby and mama)
wiskey, for both of you.
ReplyDeleteI feel your pain...teething sucks! I've been thinking James has been teething for the past 6 months - and he STILL hasen't popped out a tooth (he's 10 months). Hopefully it won't drag on for you the same way. The highlands works okay, but I sometimes use orajel and/or tylonal. My Grandpa Pinky keeps telling me to have James chew on green onions?!?!?!? I have yet to try this ancient remedy :) Good luck Amanda!
ReplyDeletegreen onions? totally random. I use tylenol, but dont want to overdose her on that... I'll try Orajel too. thanks sarah
