hi y'all, just have a quick question.
my ds woke up the other night at 11:30 screaming. i checked for burps, dirty diaper, other obvious possible sources for distress like something pinching him, etc. he had his fingers in his mouth, though how far that clue gets me i'm not sure as they are in there 24/7. he's 20 weeks old and sleeps through the night and is very very happy otherwise. could this be an early teething situation? i heard that the pain can come on and off for up to 2 months before the first tooth comes in.
any other possibilities? maybe a bad dream?
i ended up giving him some tylenol cause he looked like he was in pain. i held him for a while and then put him back to bed. he didn't complain at all at that point and went back to sleep. the whole thing took 15-20 minutes.
thanks for any insights you can give me.
