Teething??? advice please x

ladyty2k · Apr 12th, 2010, 16:39 PM

Hi ladies

I have a 6 month old daughter who used to sleep through the night until last week! She used to sleep 12 hours a night and we never heard a peep but now (and coincidently now im back at work 3 days a week) she is waking at least twice a night wanting a feed, not like her at all!!!

She never seems settled either now, as im typing she is stirring and i have had to put her dummy back in 3 times...oh and she has a cough the past 2 days too...

She is on solids and milk, eats well etc....although gone off her solids a little the last few days...

Could it be teething??????? She has been biting down on things, red cheeks etc for a while but nothing yet!!

I guess im just wondering if it sounds like teething or whether we have just had it good up until now :-)

Either way we will adjust as she is soooooo adorable but just concerned if she might be suffering with teeth?? She doesnt seem to cry with it either..

thanks x

probably teeth.....my boy has had two teeth through in the last fortnight , funnily enough since they are through he has been waking a bit more at night and is quite distressed when he does.....which makes me wonder if some more teeth are on the way as I understood they gave most pain before the teeth broke the gums. Maybe try Calpol? see what she does sleepwise when any pain is relieved?
