She sounds like she is teething. Have you tried any remedies?

nelsons teetha powders work like a dream

you can get them in boots/tescos etc

Ashton & Parsons powders (probably same stuff as Nelsons) are great for teethers. Really helping with DS2 (18 weeks)

the teethas are homeopathic powder that come in a wee packet that you pour into her mouth and they'll settle her down

I prefered Nelsons over ashton and parsons but for no reason other than personal choice

And i'm the same dizzy, but vice versa!!

lol RomanCandleQueen - I found them a bit fiddly where as the teethas you just rip them open and chuck them in

Teething powders did nothing for dd. Calgel was the best thing and some calpol when she was really miserable.

Dd started teething at 3.5 months and her first tooth came through this weekend - She is now 5 months!
