Teething questions

Honestly I didn't even realize his latest tooth was coming through until it appeared on Wednesday
I feel like someone should write a parenting book called ‘is it teething or just being 1?’ 🤣 My son seems to find the top teeth coming through more painful than the bottom teeth, and exactly like you said irritable and upset and just doesn’t know what to do with himself. He also pulls on his ears, tries to chew and bite everything and goes off his food/milk a bit. But the other day a bottom tooth just appeared out of nowhere with no signs 🙃
We have nearly 12 here so we’ve been through thick and thin! Chewing on hands. Literally. A bit irritated but only when tooth is actually erupting. It’s been over a month and we are getting all our pre molars here.
Thanks mums. Kaia just doesn’t have a clue what she wants - my tea cup set her off earlier. Currently in peace as she’s eating her second (or maybe 3rd😂) breakfast - whilst ….. dancing to techno in her high chair. Nurofen must have worked then 🤣
My daughters now get her back tooth’s coming out slowly, but it’s been making her have more loose stools. She’ll be moaning quite a bit too. Since becoming 1 she’s always grinding her teeth and biting on anything she can find.
Mines upped her irritability since turning one FOR SURE!
Tantrums central here too
I am the cruel mother that will not let him stick his hands in the nappy bin or the cat litter this morning 🥲
We know when our little girls getting a new tooth as she becomes SO snotty!! And it’s the only time she ever screams at night time 🥴 Also find Nurofen works so much better than Calpol!
More saliva! My LO is so bad she's just giggling and drolling everywhere, and then a week later, the tooth is out.
@Hannah yes!!! She’s snotty too!!!! Thanks for the heads up!!
@Flo seriously - they have been full on. I’ve made some videos of them as they go from 1-100 and it’s often like she doesn’t know why she’s gone in to one!
@Deborah 😅😅😅😅and I’m cruel as I won’t let her mount the TV stand, cruise the fire place or fling herself on the stairs. Since she’s turned 1 her attitude and temperament has really changed!
@Hayley same here. Like a switch

@Maria the temperament? Right! I had no idea about this. I’ve been told lots - read lots - but the 1 year change has been quite something!!!
Yeeees! Second this @Hayley
@Maria we are in it together 🫶🏽
We are also slow on teething. My daughter is 13 months old today and she only has 4 teeth. Her teeth in come in completely different to my other two. She had one bottom one and then her top one and then her other top one and now her other bottom one is coming through. With her she's always been clingy, so she just munches her hand and gets irritable.
Thank you. I see so many people getting photos of their babies teeth but I can’t prize her mouth open! I don’t know what’s going on in there 😳
@Hayley it's a fight to brush my little girls teeth never mind take photos of them or open her mouth to see what's going on. She keeps pulling her gums at the moment so I think she's got more coming in but won't let me see. Cucumber has helped us and the odd mini milks too especially in the heat
@Ebony yeah I’ve no clue what’s in there tbh as she slams her lips shut whenever i try to get my fingers in there to see 😂
We're slow on teething too. She's got her 2 bottom teeth and her 2 top have just cut in. I think she's got another coming in too as she's extra grumpy at night at rhe moment. Unless she was clingy with her first 2 teeth I won't say it's a symptom of teething. Since turning 1 my little girl likes cuddles and has just worked out how to give kisses too she she runs around trying to give everyone cuddles and kisses
