Teething?

merjmm

For the past 3 days DS has not been himself.  He used to sleep through the night and now he is up almost every hour.  He is extremely fussy and nothing seems to make him happy.  The only time he is happy is when he has something cold in his mouth or when he is biting on his (or our) hands.  He shows very little interest in even his favorite toys.  His cheeks are bright red (no fever) and has been drooling more than normal.  Could he be cutting his first tooth?

Any suggestions on how to get through this?

Sounds like it. Do u feel or see anything cutting through. I can feel and see her 2 bottom teeth about to break thru. I have been using Hyland's teething tablets, frozen paci, teething rings, and tylenol when she is really fussy.
