Title: Teething
Post by: kellyann on May 15, 2006, 16:14:11 pm
HI...
Can anyone tell me how long  it takes for the 2nd molars to come in????   We are in teething HE!!  My boys have been misearble for about 3 weeks...drooling, bad diapers, interupted sleep,not eating great, fussy, fussy and did I mention fussy?  I still don't see anything back there yet but when I put my finger in their mouths or try and brush their teeth they begin crying.  I hate giving them so much Motrin and Tylenol does nothing for them.  Hoping for a light at the end of the tunnel here.  Thanks, Kelly

No answer for you just hugs and support. Same things going on here; I am fed up with telling people she is teething and have nothing to show for it.................

We are in our third week over here.  ::)  I've found that when dd gets really fussy, I would let her suck on ice chips.  Although lately she prefers the entire cube! 

Did you have to revert back to bottle feeding to get food in your lo?  I'm at a loss as to how to get anything in her mouth other than ice chips!

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Friggin nightmare over here. Dinner was a disaster with clamped mouth whining etc... so I am at a loss over here too. She still takes a bottle at night anyway but she did not even finish that. She is usually a perfect sleeper ( touch wood) for the last few nights she has been screaming bloody murder before settling and today; the final straw today was that her daytime sleep was disturbed; 50 min of whining before she fell asleep. I am tearing my hair out.

I go back to purees when teething (just blitz normal dinners up), even tiny lumps are a no-no! Thank God for yoghurt!

Oh Ladies....I'm so glad it just isn't me!!!!  Hopefully we will all get through this.   ::)
Yes thank god for yogurt.  I have also been giving my boys sugar free popsicles.  They sometimes will take applesauce or oatmeal when teething but not much else.
