Teething 1 year old

Is there anything recommended I can do for my baby? he will sporadically wake up in the middle of the night and cry. I am STILL nursing and I am genuinely exhausted. I want my body back, I said 1 year was max but this is just too much for me. My husband doesn’t want to deal with the crying, but I am the one rocking my child and trying to offer milk in a sippy cup which in the middle of the night he won’t take it. My baby will cry until I nurse him. He will drink during the day and even before bed, but when he wakes up and he’s non stop crying at 2 am or 3 am until I nurse him.

I have tried Teething Tamer but unfortunately only works so temporarily. Maybe pain relief medicine before bed? I’m not sure, thankfully I have a wellness 1 year old check up for him coming up on the 16th because I will most definitely be addressing this with my son’s pediatrician.

Teething is a tough one! When it's really bad for our son we use infant Tylenol right before bedtime so it helps throughout the night. It comes in different flavors too which helps to entice them to take it. We always do a small amount at a time until he's got the full dose so it doesn't overwhelm him. You can also try the oral gel that you apply directly to the gums, those help too. ❤️
