I'm back baby!
My baby boy is teething. Well, all the signs are present. Biting down on stuff more, drooling lots (not unusual for him though), rash around his mouth, swollen cheeks...

With our lass working nights I'll be up for the long haul. Luckily he let me have at least 3 hours last night :o

Debating whether to make a coffee now or save it til the really difficult hours between 3 and 5. Might have irn bru for now. Must resist the beer.

Who's on board?
 
He's not sleeping, that's the point. I have to soothe him every 20-30 mins.

He's off his bottle too. Well, the contents at least. He just chews it.
 
I've never dealt with teething before, my other who is 8 now was 3 when he ran screaming into my life :D

Vaseline on his lips, bonjela on his gums and suspension in his tummy and he's still unsettled.

I watched all four hours of treasure island with him waking up crying for each ad break!
 
Go down the water-cooling route.

What age? Mine has watered down juice, keeps him cool and at optimal processing.
 
Well, it isn't true that I can't do anything. I can soothe him and rock him back to sleep so he has a bit of respite. I'll just need to be coffee powered at work tomorrow.

Thankfully I'm the boss so I can go in any time! Tho I need to go to kwik fit for a new tyre.
 
Just checking in. Phone went on the docking station to charge and then he fell asleep on me and I didn't want to disturb him to have my phone.

Will check the chemist out today. Cheers guys.
