Impact of teething on sleep?

[oremstango]

My ds is just cutting his top 2 teeth and it seems to be causing him to wake at night and need to nurse when he didn't previously. Did anyone else have this problem and did it pass after the teeth came through? Worried he'll get on to a new sleep pattern with this...thanks!

yeah my ds is exactly the same........be prepared that it can upset the routine u have but u cant do anything but go with the flow im afraid,just make sure that u give him calpol about 30 minutes before u settle him for bed......you can use ibuprofen 2 hours after giving calpol.and make sure he has enough bonjela, or calgel

my dd has had trouble with every movement of every tooth It did caouse sleep problems but as suezee said calpol /ibuprofen really does help. (medised is really good too cos it tends to make them sleepy.) Once the tooth has stopped moving or broken through they tend to go back to their normal routine.
