The baby is definitely teething. Yesterday morning she seemed a bit ill (pale, reddish eyes, quiet and subdued, little bit of a rash around her face) though she didn’t have a fever and didn’t seem to have anything wrong with her, last night, she was unusually fussy around dinner time, and all day today she was periodically fussy, arching her back a lot and stuffing whatever’s closest into her mouth to chew. I felt around her bottom gum and sure enough, there’s the hint of a tooth just starting to break out of the gum line. I gave her the teething ring several times today, though the damn thing doesn’t stay cool for very long, and she seemed to really like carrying wash cloths around in her mouth like a dog. And fiddling with pens in her mouth, though since she doesn’t yet have teeth and I was watching her do it, I figured it was ok. I gave her a dose of liquid Tylenol – only it wasn’t the Tylenol brand, it was something else – before taking her to a restaurant for dinner, but the damn drug did nothing and she was quite vocally in pain throughout the meal no matter what we did. Tomorrow, I might look into getting one of those pouches that you can put food into and freeze for teething babies. Maybe teething biscuits, too.
