Teeth finally through but baby still off bottles

[GeorgesMummy5224]

So my little man has finally cut his first 2 teeth! The 1st cut through on Monday morning and the 2nd Tuesday night.

Everything I've read suggests that the pain should subside once they've cut through the gum but my boy is still struggling to drink his bottles. I imagine they will be sore but today has been the hardest so far to get him to drink his milk.

I've tried Ashton and Parsons powder and gel, bongela, Nelson's granules, nurofen, Anbesol. Nothing seems to be helping him.

He's otherwise quite happy, still sucking and chomping on his hands a lot so must still be bothering him but I'm worried he isn't getting enough milk 😔

How much longer should I expect this to carry on for? I can't see any sign of any other teeth making an appearance soon.

Yeah it's probably another tooth on the way. When my son's first tooth finally popped out I thought "finally! Maybe he'll stop being so grumpy now"

8 weeks and 8 teeth later, he did finally stop being grumpy.

8 weeks?! My word I feel for you!

He's been teething since he was about 3 months old but it's in the last 3 weeks he's become fussier than ever.

He isn't particularly grumpy, it' is literally just his feeding that's affected.
