All of DS's teeth have risen to the surface of the gum and then stayed there for weeks and weeks before finally coming through and giving him some relief. He has now been 7 months with his bottom molars.
Over the last 3 weeks about one third of one molar has come through on one side and a tiny bit on the other side. He is clearly suffering but his behaviour when they are really bad is just unbearable (mostly directed at DD who is 5m old).
DD started teething aged 8 weeks and is following a similar pattern. She has 8 teeth just poking through but they aren't actually coming properly so are just making life very diffcult for her.
I am at the end of my tether - if one isn't crying the other is. We've tried Anbusol, teething powders, homoeopathy and good old Calpol. We get about an hour's respite if we're lucky.
Does anyone have any suggestions please?
