This sounds very similar to DS when he is about to get a tooth. I don't feel great about giving him medication either but every time I have given it to him it has settled him right down. I am thinking that if nothing else has worked and the panadol has then he must have been in pain. And within 2 - 3 days there is a little toothypeg there for me to adore.

Interesting to hear that they get a bit fussy just before a major milestone. DS has been driving me nuts lately and just the last few days he has been trying to crawl.

I hope she settles back to being herself for you real soon.
