Teething & No Sleeping

[luminosity]

Hiya Campari,

Yeah I know what ya mean about applying the gel on their gums...Maya sticks her tongue out ready to lick it off my finger too...I think she likes Bonjela, I dunno what do you think lol?

Maya was born at 2:06am, exactly on her due date too!

Thanks for the luck! Good luck to you too

Hi my DD is getting another tooth (or teeth ). the 1st 2 were on the day of her 4 month injections, and I actually don't know which was causing the grizzles that day, but this one is so different.. 3 nights so far of waking 3 + times, she normally sleeps through.

Is there an average time it takes for the tooth to come through (I know all are different, but just want a rough idea).

I have bought some baby nurofen and will give her some later today when I can watch her to make sure she doesn't react. I was way too tired after shooting out to the after hours chemist last night..

Yay, lots to look forward to. Just what I need with the inlaws coming to stay for a week.. ., but thanks, at least I know not to stress if it continues for a while..

luminosity - sorry for hijacking your thread (brain wasn't really here this morning)..

My DD is exactly the same, this time is worse cause I think there are 4 trying to get through at once. Bonjela kind of works, but I will have to try the SM-33. As for applying it, my DD doesn't have a dummy and I noticed when I put one in her mouth to try and get her to sleep cause I was at my wits end, she chewed it. Now I put the Bonjela on the dummy and she puts it in, and normally straight to the sore spot.

Hi Girls

Sorry to hijack the thread but I have been having some issues with my DD who is now 5 months old.

Her bottom two came through at 4 months and are really through now. I'm having some issues this past week with her. Her gums at the top are quite white, she is really chewing on things and will move her tongue along the top gums. Her urine smells extremely bad. She is also waking through the night regularly, stirring quite a bit and grizzling. She has been one to always sleep through. It's so hard when she night wakes! I've been giving her Brauers Teething Relief but she still stirs, perhaps Panadol would work better?

Question, could her top two be coming down this early as her bottom two were early? And do those symptoms sound familiar to any of you?

Your help in trying to figure out what is wrong would be helpful!

Thanks.

Belinda

I am going insane!

DD is waking all night and she tosses and turns so much, it's been like this for a couple of weeks now, hoping it will get better

I can't feel two teeth at the top but it's so hard! Nurofen is given to her before bed and it seems to help for a while but then she'll start tossing/turning again.

It's hard to know if this is it! Her two bottom ones were here at 4 months so I suspect her top two are coming down at 6 months.

Sorry if TMI but her urine smells soooooooo strong too!

Is there a light at the end of the tunnel? Does this take weeks? She has always slept through.

Thanks.

bindy are you still co sleeping???? babies are very restless sleepers, more so than us, perhaps try her in her own cot beside your bed! she may sleep a little better and not wake so much
