Awwww, it’s so sad isn’t itI think we’re teething properly now, baby B’s been so whiny all day and didn’t sleep until 4pm he had 2 hours and sobbed his little heart out and chewed his hands. Calpol’s helped and he’s so much happier, I’m not ready for how long this could take I want to wake up and see a little tooth.
Would you all give calpol when they cry like they need it to take the edge off or do it every 6 hours? The tooth could take a while to come through right?
I usually give calpol when lil’P won’t settle at all, after teething powders, distractions, chew things or bed time etc. when she’s getting easily upset. Sometimes I’ll give a dose and won’t need another for the rest of the day…I do a kind of play it by’ere approach.
I think you can give calpol every 4 hours though if it’s bad. You can also alternate ibruprophen too if it’s really bad.
Theres anbesol liquid too which apparently is fantastic for a quick fix, but it’s still in the cupboard and we’ve not needed it yet!
Hope he settles soon!
Also yayyyyyy @Crazycatlady18 on the teeth
