What's wrong??

in Parenting after a Loss
DS has been more than fussy for the past three days.  I'm trying everything I can to make him more comfortable, but it rarely works.  He's eating a little less, sleeping MUCH less, and crying a lot more than usual.  He's drooling a lot more when he has his pacifier (nap/sleep) and bathroom habits haven't changed.  DH thinks he might be teething....any ideas or suggestions?

    Not sure what *exactly* to do as we are kind of going through the same thing right now.  Is he running a fever by chance?  DD is drooling a lot and not wanting to eat.  I've found giving her a frozen washcloth helps a little too.  I think DD has something going on in her mouth although I don't see or feel anything.  Does wearing him help settle him down?

    No fever at all.  DH gave him a cold teether earlier today, and that worked for a little bit, but not for long.  Wearing him settles him down for a few, but then we're back to fussy again.  I just feel so bad for him!

    Good luck with your DD.  I hope this phase passes quickly!

    It's hard when something's wrong but they can't tell you.  I hate it.

    Part of me wants to say definitely not teething at <2 months old... but you never know. Maybe a growth spurt? GS's happen at 3 & 6 weeks and 3 & 6 months typically. Poor guy and poor mama! I hope he's more comfortable soon. 

    Maybe try a car ride or a walk if it's not too hot?

    We've been walking.  My neighbors had some entertainment last night, when he started FREAKING.OUT about halfway down the road.  It was lovely to see this fat a$$ practically running the stroller down the road!  Stick out tongue

    I'd be surprised if he's teething, too.  I think I just want to know what's wrong, so I at least know he'll be okay and there is an end in sight!
