18 month old son cutting his molars i think but cant get him to open his mouth to look. In the last 4 days he’s eaten a handful of cherios 2 fromage frais and a pack of blueberries thats it. Wont drink milk or water but has drank abit of squash. Cannot for the life of me give him calpol or teething gel- had to put calpol in his juice!! Everytime i try to put teething gel on it either goes on his lips and thats it or his front few teeth cant get it on his gums or towards the back. Feel fully helpless (can’t even imagine how he feels).
Don’t know how long is safe for him not to eat for. Every time i try to get him to eat I get so stressed even though i tell myself each time i’ll be patient It’s just getting too much he’s never been like this teething and i’ve definitely had it too good up til now because i’m feeling like I can’t cope and I’m counting down the hours until work and I can have a break which feels so shit. Needed a rant sorry, but also how do you get teething gel on a toddler?!
