Teething - Fish Face

[Let it be]

Hi everyone, I've not been on here for a while - i've been trying to deal with motherood and post natal depression.

This is a bit of a random question. My poor son has been teething since he was 8 weeks old, he is now 39 weeks old this week and still no sign of a tooth. The last few weeks the pain really seems to have stepped up a gear and his sleeping is all up the wall and he just cries and moans all day - until recently he has been the most happy and content baby.

Anyway, he keeps makes this face that I can only describe as looking like a fish, sucking his cheeks in - has anyone else's lo's done this when they have been teething or does my son just want to be a fish? ha ha

Thanks

Babies do all sorts of funny, random things!

My little girl doesn't do this....but I wouldn't worry about it! Maybe it helps ease the pain? Or it may have nothing to do with teething! It sounds cute
