Oh Dianna your doing a wonderful job! Gemma has been through about 2 -3 months of not being herself because of teething and/or sickness. She was constantly grumpy and just wante me all the time to comfort her.She hated doing anything, went off bottles and food and I was just doubting my abilites all the way. But we came out of it. After so many months of tears, tantrums and being so unhappy I finally have my girl back.She certainly has her moments still but shes nothing like she was. She cut her bottom 2 teeth and top eye teeth in that time.The eye teeth were the worst and took the longest to come in.Unfortunately they never tell you that teething makes them so terribly unhappy for soooo long! Gem also didn't like teething gel and panadal didn't even help at all or nurofen. All that worked was cuddles and comfort from me. I remember trying to get to sleep at night with her clinging to me and everytime I moved her she'd scream! WIth regards to meeting her milestones, to be honest, it was the furtherest thing from my mind. I was so upset because she was upset.Some bubs don't even get affected by teething and others like ours and totally distressed by it. Brodie will get there hun.Gem went through a long stage of where she didn't seem to be doing anything.It was like she'd forgotten how to do things. Then all of a sudden she came in leaps and bounds. Just concentrate on that gorgeous boy of yours. And don't ever doubt yourself. Your doing an absolutely wonderful job and I take my hat off to you. Teething is tricky, tireing business for us mummies!
