then today was crazy! we had to take matt to the hospital, then as i was getting ready grant rolled over from his back for the first time RIGHT off the bed! he's totally fine, he was happy once he got over the shock of it.
i was glad he was so fussy yesterday or i would have thought it was the fall bugging him. he just kept crying and screaming at me.
THEN as i look down at my three month old laying in my lap i see them. 3 white dots on his bottom gums. whaaaa? noooo way. yes way. i felt it, hoping i could rub it away, maybe it was just spit up. nope. he's teething. poor little boy. he's got 3 teeth coming in at once and at 3 months old. so sad.
amanda ran to the store for me and got some oral gel, i rubbed his gums and he just kept cry. matt was the only one that could calm him, he walked around a bit and grant fell right to sleep. poor thing. the saddest thing ever ever ever is when you can't stop the pain of your baby.
I hope the teething pain doesn't linger too long. That stinks...
ReplyDeleteIf Grant is the way Andrew was when he was teething, he'll be grumpy and get a bunch at once. Andrew had his first tooth pop through at 5 months, but by the time he was a year old, he had 12 teeth. David's 17 months and only just getting his 12th tooth.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with Grant's teething. It can be rough, but you'll have cute little pearly whites to show for it!
poor baby!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could tell you it gets easier...but really the coolest thing that you will witness is that as long as you are there to console him and hug him and love him, he will fill comforted! And as he gets older he'll know that you and matt are there to console him and protect him no matter what! I love that Cassie can come to us and tell us how she is feeling, I love how she can just crawl into our laps for some comfort whenever she needs it! And Grant will know that!! You guys are great parents! Keep up the great work!!
