Teething?

Hey I’m unsure whether my 16 week old is teething or not? He’s fussy, crying more than normal, biting the hell out of his hands and crying, chews on anything he can grab. Photo attached, possibly not the best but just need some general advice! Thank you x

My baby is pretty much the same age as yours, and she’s 100% teething displaying exact same behaviour you’re describing 🙏 could also be a mix of teething and growth spurt.. so I’m feeding more and I give her calpol if she’s too much in pain! Speak to Gp though… good luck xx

@Agata bless her! It’s horrible watching them in pain isn’t it… thank you for the advice, I would definitely say he’s going through a growth spurt but I feel like he could be teething too. Poor babies 😔

I know it’s heart breaking 😭 but it’s just a phase, this is what I keep telling myself! She’ll get better! And so will your beautiful boy . Xx

@Agata definitely! They will, hopefully the teethies come through and it can calm them down for a bit haha! 😊xx

That definitely sounds like teething, we've had a duvet day thanks to teething it's not nice

@Holley great to know, it is so awful knowing they’re hurting and we can’t do anything but cuddle them and give them calpol 😔 my little one is obsessed with his little Peter rabbit so always bites on his ears to alleviate any pain and cuddles him to sleep and comfort 🥹 we’ve had more cuddles today than normal bless him!

@Liene at the weekend the Airbnb gifted my little boy a bunny soft toy for Easter and the poor thing is gonna have no ears left at this rate 😂 I managed to get him to chomp on a teether today give the poor bugger a break (and probably a chance to go through the washing machine)

@Holley Awh that’s is so sweet! Do you find that it helps him with the pain? I think it does for my little boy! He’s also obsessed with the Nuby keyring😂 donks himself on the head with it often but still loves it 😂
