Babies: 6 - 9 Months
Teething and teething symptoms
DD is 6 months old and has officially started teething. I am a new Mom and have never actually seen what a baby goes through while teething so some new symptoms that I was not prepared for have popped up....Any advice?
Diarrhea? I never knew children who were teething did this. DD is going sometimes every few hours or sometimes 3 or 4 times in a period of a couple of hours. Is this normal?
Biting down on something and pulling back? I've never seen a baby do this either. And when it happens to be yourfinger, it is not pleasant.
Refusing to sleep? I knew she would do this, but I didn't expect her to sleep for 15 minutes at a time and then cry the rest of the time.
Any advice would be appreciated.
