Pholi, the top two teeth are supposed to be next (if you are using teething rusks, the boxes have a picture of the order). We aren't doing any dental hygiene either.. I think I might start. Not good that Thor reacted to the egg! Thank goodness you were at hospital. Would have been terrifying at home. Hopefully he does grow out of it
DDB and Miss_Dee, we cosleep too. J has his naps in the cot, starts the night (if we're lucky..) in his cot but is in bed with us for most, if not all of the night. It is so much easier!
Dr.Tal, oh your DS sounds SO CUTE! Protective big brother So good that you get to breastfed them at lunch time.
Chrispe, I love juice!! Maybe that's why my teeth are bad haha but seriously I need to go to the dentist I have seen SO many mums offer their kids 'juice' then proceed to mix up a pitcher of cordial??!! Um?!!
Anyway, sorry for brief responses, trying to be quick while J is napping.
AFU, things are going, well, not so great J's sleeping continues to be horrific. He has cut 4 more teeth (bottom 2 last month, and the top 4 in the last week), but I don't believe he is in any pain.. He is very easy to get to sleep during the day for his naps, but night time is really testing our patience. I've booked in to an Osteopath as I'm at the end of my tether. He is awake, thrashing around until 3am most nights/mornings. He screams like a banshee in his cot, but only at night, so now we are cosleeping. Except he thrashes and thrashes and grunts and rolls and refuses to sleep. Not crying or upset (which is why I don't believe he's in pain). NOTHING works. Last night I went for a 2 hour walk up and down our street (with my dog for protection) with him in the carrier to get him to sleep. Even then he was only drowsy, so I fed him to sleep, put him down, walked out of the room.. the screaming begun. Somehow DH managed to get him to sleep by 10.30. We are following his tired signs and trying to put him down at around 7.30, sometimes he does sleep but wakes up hourly until we come to bed then awake for hours. Not really enjoying this at the moment as I'm so sleep deprived. DH and I are both so fatigued, snappy and grumpy.
Anyway, sorry for the ramble but needed to get it out.
