Teething
So my boy is cutting his first tooth, and OMG I have never seen anything like it. My daughter coped so well. I have tried EVERYTHING!!! Literally. He just screams and screams all day long. Won’t be out down which is fine but at the same time I still need to be there for my 2 year old and give her my attention to. He won’t sleep. Nothing helps the pain. He won’t even sleep at night. But will sleep from 5am till 9am with no wake ups, but my daughter wakes up at 6am so that doesn’t help me.
Last night he had me up from 10pm till 1.30pm every 30/40mins, ended up on the sofa. Then finally in his cot but awake every hour.
He is more miserable than normal and today has cried for 4 hours straight. I’m at my wits end and have no idea how to help him.
We’ve tried, teething powder, gel, calpol, nurofen, frozen absolutely everything, teething toys. You name it. If you have a hidden secret please tell me as I just want this to be over 😭😭😭

My daughter is the same, every tooth is the end of the world and means we lose sleep for a week or more I have found cooking things with cinnamon in helps a little
he’s only 6 months. What sort of things would you cook with cinnamon hun?
I went with a herbal topical roller. Takes 30 mins to kick in but always helps her
The only thing that worked for my son were mommy’s bliss teething tablets and sometimes for a small amount of time chewing the end of a green onion. Good luck mama!
