teething baby !!

Kendrick is teething now was wondering why he was so cranky lately and wasnt sleeping for long periods sooo no judgements but I did buy him some teething tablets and natural oralgel which the oralgel works better and now he sleeps but I bottle feed him and I think he likes that better bc I have the bottles in the frig and I heat them up but I dont heat up the nipple so it stays cold which probably feels good on his gums and he doesnt have to suck as hard since the formula drips in his mouth and breast feeding he has to suck a lil harder I think and its not cold so he gets sucking then pulling on my nipple and going on and off my boob lol idk thats what I just assummed what do u ladies think and any of your babies teething

Bailey is always sucking on everything too, just wish he would take a bottle too, as i find he is starting to clamp down on me and pull on and off as well. I say do whatever works for you!!

My son was a little older when teething started. 5-6 months. Cold carrots were such a blessing. Lol my grandmother and her stories are so cute but would never do it. She said she use to rub whiskey on my dads gums. Crazy how times have changed.
My son would sit there and s uck on the carrot for hours! And taln about baby slobbers!

I think Genevieve is starting to. She's been chewing on her hand a lot lately and has gotten a low fever (around 99) a few times. She really hasn't been crabby though but both of my boys were good teethers and both of them got teeth around 4 1/2 months old.
