Teething Sucks!

As the title might sugest, my poor little biy is teething. Now his first tooth appeared a few days after christmas, I am pretty sure that it was the 29th December but I can't be sure.

Why? Because I didnt' even notice it was there untill he bit me (and oh my gosh did it hurt!!). So apparently it must not have bothered him at all.

Then recently after a high temperature a sooky baby tooth number two appeared on the 13th February.

So when I noticed a third tooth appearing only 6 days later I was a little bit shocked, there was nearly a month and a half between the first two. All this leads up to last night whic resulted in our second trip to the hospital since B was born.

Last night for no apparent reason he just started screaming.. and screaming and screaming. After a dose of panadol and some bonjela he still couldn't be consoled, so after trying all the usual tactics and my poor little man still screaming we decided to take him to the hospital just to make sure it really was just his teeth bothering him.

We put him in the car and strapped him in, and got about 5 minutes away from the hospital and he finally fell asleep. Once we got there and took him in the admissions nurse looked him over and took his obs before telling us we would be in for a long wait.

We sat sown and waited but apart from a little bit of grizzling he seemed mostly fine, so after 2 hours of waiting the nurse checked him again and apart from developing a rash he was fine so we went home.

This morning we woke to find yet another tooth. So no wonder my poor little man was in pain two teeth in two days..

Teething Sucks!! He has not only had high temps, but a runny nose, a rash on his belly, the most ridiculously horrible nappy rash, diorreah and wont eat except boob coz it hurts too much.

My poor little monkey!!
