cutting teeth

[TettyLouBar]

Afternoon all,
DD is 24 weeks now and after many nights of disturbed sleep (more than usual!!) and crying, dribbling and knawing on all in sundry, we finally have the tops of two bottom front teeth in view. Is that the most painful bit over then? or does it continue to hurt them whilst they rise up through the gum??
how long did your LO's have between teething times? was hoping for a respite before the next onslaught...

In my experience that's the worst bit. When they start to show it isn't so bad. Their bums start getting a little less red too. You should get a bit of a break now hopefully. Sympathy, DS just cutting his 7th and 8th teeth at the moment.

Watching with interest as Dd(7 months) has a tiny sharp bit poking out at the bottom and has has two hellish nights. I keep expecting a tooth to be there but, alas, not yet

Oooh good Wizzska, glad we're over that hurdle. she was so upset during the night, it was horrible.
not looking forward to the next ones, but atleast I know what to look out for and can arm myself with calpol, chilled teethers and cuddles.
Hang in there Sunshine, won't be long now.

Dds has just cut her first and now the gum is cut and the tooth is through she is much better.

The one next door to it is showing of coming through but it doesnt seem to be bothering her like the 1st did.
