Ouch!

My poor little Ashlyn has finally cut a tooth. We found it on Sunday and she has been miserable ever since. Her nose is running constantly and she can't breathe. Part of me wonders if it's a cold and a tooth. I think I got about 4 hours of sleep last night. She made noises all through the night because she couldn't breath. I feel so bad for her. She is such a happy baby that it's a little weird to have her so cranky. I think I was lucky with Megan and her teething. I hardly knew when she had a tooth coming in. The only way I knew that she was getting a tooth was because she chewed her tongue nonstop. We'll have to see if she'll let me get a picture in a little while. Right now she shuts her mouth tight every time I try to stick my finger in. She hates the baby orajel.

Oh it's one of those wonderful rites of passage as parents. One of those things our parents just smile about when we tell them what we're going through....they've been there!
As have I, and feel your pain. And would come over and watch little people so you could take a nap.
Put some tissues in her stocking ~ she'll need them while all those other teeth are coming in. We wonder now why we didn't buy stock in Kleenex. lol. and bum medicine. Diaper rash seems to come with teeth, too.

Oh this is sad! Poor little thing. I don't know if anyone has given you the option of frozen grapes? I used them on Britton and they seemed to work great. If you get the big, seedless green grapes and you can hold them while she naws on them. Anyways, it may be worth a shot!

that is crazy, there was nothing on Saturday! Poor girl, I can't imagine her not being happy after how sweet she was at my house!

Lacey is dealing with the horriable phase as well. Not to mention having cold season on top of all this. I totally feel for you and think I am going to try to catch a nap today myself. Good luck
