So here it is:
Friday, September 4 we have Gavin's first tooth in sight. Its what appears to me, as the bottom left tooth. It hasn't totally cut through to the surface yet, but I can see it and I can feel the top of it with my finger. Those little teeth are sharp!
So as for our Labor day weekend, it consisted of Baby Tylenol, Chilled teething rings and burp rags. Gavin's druel totally picked up. I thought he was druelly before this, oh he is druelly now. And his druel changed to a much thicker slime. He's got mild poopyness, and a temp in the 99s. Only today, Sunday, did it break 100. But its been real low grade fever. 100.3 exactly. Other then that, we're just hanging out waiting for the tooth to break to the surface. Every day since Friday, it comes up a little bit more and a little bit more. It's almost completely to the surface now on Sunday night. He has been slightly cranky and he has no appetite what so ever. He's eating his rice cereal all right, not as good as normal. And he's really not taking to my nipples or his bottles well at all. I'm not too worried about him not taking to my nipples because as soon as these teeth pop through, I'm done with the breast feeding. I'll go to only pumping. Right now I split it up 50/50, but it'll go 100% if he's got teeth.
If you have any pearls of wisdom or advice that I can use to get me through this teething time, all is appreciated. So far we've been all right, but I feel like its the calm before the storm. Ok, I'll blog again soon and let you know how we're holding up in our time of teething.
