The dreaded back teeth.....

[Mervs Mum]

Hebe's back teeth have broken through the gums but they are a long way off through yet

She went to sleep as normal but woke an hour later in hysterics. Really crying in pain and nothing would sooth her. We dosed her up with Calpol and Nelsons powders and I even offered her a bottle of milk when she batted he usual cup away. Eventually we got her to settle with an episode of Waybuloo and she chewed the bottle teat and sipped it in between.

I was talking to my mate who's LO is the same age and she was saying Ruby is just the same with hers and its been weeks She's off her food and so is Hebe. During the day that's the only thing that's different really.

I knew out time would come. Hebe is such an easy baby. BFd like a dream, eats, slept from 3 weeks - just what you'd want in a baby. So if this is the start of an unsettled period then I'll have to keep reminding myself of that fact.

How long did it take for your LOs back teeth to come all the way through?

Oh bless her... Sam's took a while to come all the way through (weeks) but they didn't bother him much once they were through the gum on both sides (each tooth came through in 2 places first with gum in the middle). The worst time was before they came through at all though, so hopefully it'll get a bit better for her now

 

[Mervs Mum]

That's good to know. The points are through now both sides IYKWIM.

poor poor hebe hope they are through asap hon. maddi has her 4 pre-molars now, but they came through within about 2weeks and tbh didn't bother her at all. she's just getting her back molars and bottom canine's but only really suffer's with a red cheek xxx

We are still waiting on 3 at the grand age of 2 and 3 months the last one took about 10 days of waking through the night She was never a great teether though with any of her teeth

It would be good if Hebe's could get her's before little Sid comes, here's hoping xxx
