Teething 8 month old
Really struggling with my teething 8 month old. She does already have her bottom 2. She’s had anbesol which doesn’t seem to take the pain off. She’s also got a cold too I have given calpol. Nothing seems to help, also having runny poos. I’m just exhausted and wondered if anyone has any advice or anyone going through the same thing? It’s just exhausting she won’t be put down, screams when I leave the room. Also not sleeping as usually would on a night time. Goes down to sleep ok but lots of wakings.
Any advice would be appreciated, from one tired mum!

Supposedly runny poop is not related to teething, my doctor said thats a myth. That it might be if the baby is putting hands in mouth more during teething and picked up a bacteria.
For teething ive been giving my baby cold cucumber wedges. She really likes that. But as far as the fussiness it might not even be due to teeth but around 8 months they seem to get clingy and have separation anxiety too. My baby has been super clingy from 8 months til now (10months) she wont let me leave the room without her.
Honestly? Ride the wave, it’s tough, it’s shit, but it’ll get better. There’s no magic solution, just grin and bear it and you’ll come out the other side! Till the next tooth arrives anyway 🤥😅😂
Same here. Hoping it’s a phase because I’m done in
