LO (7 months) cut his first tooth last week, followed shortly by the matching one. Bottom centre. Both feel sharp and can be seen below the gum, but nothing much to see above yet except the cut in his gums.
He's being an absolute champ, blob some teething gel on and give him something to chew, and he's fine. Is this suddenly going to get much more painful for him, as the teeth come out? Or are these particularly easy teeth in teething terms, and the others will be worse (I can feel the top middle and some very far back teeth very prominently through the gum as well)?
We've had months of hell with cmpa, severe reflux, and a 6 month feeding aversion we are only just now resolving. I wondered if I'm being naive in thinking all this pain has raised his tolerance levels, or whether there is much worse ahead! I know teething is horrific for many families, and wanted to prepare myself for it in a way I failed to do for his other problems.
