hollyberry how do you know when it's teething? DS has been so cranky all day, like legit screaming and pulling off the boob and he has never done this before. I'm wondering if it covers teething but no idea?
Well by the one I can see a small corner of an tooth and he is very cranky and clingy. The other one is starting to behave like her brother. Not wanting to sleep well, the poops have been waterier the past little bit. On her I think i can see the white underneath the gums. I think pretty much anything can go when it comes to teething. So maybe. The poops have been different for abput 3weeks so I assumw they have been working on it for a while now. Bu I just noticed the tooth at the end of last week. So I am pretty sure thats what it was.

Teething is freaking impossible for me to figure. Until I physically see a tooth coming in I blame everything else. DD1 started drooling and chomping on everything at 2-3 mo. Her sleep got worse too. I thought she was teething. She did not cut a tooth until 7 mo. and she turned out not to mind teething much until molars.
So my answer on "how do you know it's teething?" is always "When you see a new tooth."
Went for their 3month check today. Dr didn't think that they were teething, maybe working on it but not yet. I am not completely convinced however the little corner of a tooth that baby boy had is gone today. Maybe it was juat a blister or something. I don't know. But the last couple days thay have been harder to consol and that is real. But if they are not teething then at least my babies are not growing too fast!

Yup I blamed the drooling on teeth and any discomfort on teething, when in fact it was gas. She wasn't effected by actually teething until her 2 yo molars.
I don't know what to do about the swaddle. DD breaks out of the blanket swaddle so easily now but she get so agitated when I put her in the Velcro or zip up swaddles. She needs something because she still flails around so much if she's unswaddled, and I've never been able to get her to fall asleep in her crib without it. I'm reluctant to spend much on any more swaddle type things though since she has hated everything else I've bought.

Exactly this. Ds1 started with the crazy drooling and other symptoms at 3 months. At 7 months his dr said "any day now" because you could see the teeth just below the surface. His first tooth popped through 6 days after his first birthday.
Ds2 is already drooly but I figure we've got a long way to go!
Good morning! It's in the 30s today. DD keeps asking to go outside, then when I tell her she'll have to wear a hat she changes her mind and asks to play in the basement. Getting that girl dressed is always s challenge!

I'm reluctant to spend much on any more swaddle type things though since she has hated everything else I've bought.
So, my kid found the velcro swaddle a torture device when I first brought it out. She cried and struggled against it. I waited then reintroduced it one day at a time when I knew she'd fall asleep no matter what I did. Once she did a sleep with it, she let her anger go. Now she gets in with minimal effort.

My kid is a fighter, but we take it as her last ditch effort before she gives in to sleep. She really fights going to sleep no matter what, so her fighting against the swaddle no big deal to me. I'd love to ditch the swaddle, but the few times we've tried she's been awake within an hour of putting her down. We recently bought two of the velcro swaddles (we'd been using the blankets only) and have had limited success. It may also be a combination with age and growth spurts/general fussiness.
Me (30) MH (32) Dx: MFI (low all the things) M. 10/11. TTC Since 01/14 IUI#1-3(Letrozole + Trigger) = BFN Second Opinion. Changed RE's. IVF 09/15 Long Lupron 12R/9M/8F, Transferred 1=BFN. 4 frosties. FET #1 12/15 Transferred 1 (3 still on ice)
We've gotten her to sleep in the swaddles a few times but it's so much harder to get her to fall asleep we mostly gave up on them. She fights the blanket too, just not as intensely and much less in the MOTN. Maybe I need to try the other swaddles again to see if I can get her used to them. With her breaking out of the blanket so much it's basically becoming a loose blanket in the crib which I know is risky.

This is what happened to my toddler when she was several months old. It was a little white circular thing on her gum that I thought was a tooth bud, but it wasn't.

Good to know I am not the only one. Of course there have been other symptoms as well but babies are hard and you never know as to why they could be cranky and clingy. Well at least today I can blame it on getting their shots.

Yesterday DH got up with the girls and did the dishes and cleaned the kitchen while I slept in until 11! Then he made me coffee when I got out of bed. It was magical.
Ok I'm at the point where I need DS to sleep in his crib or even the RNP. He's slept well in the RNP when he was a couple weeks old and then again last week once. I know he can do it. But won't most nights. I'm ready to be done bed sharing..I need him to be done too. I bought some different swaddled today to see if they have any impact. But any other advice is welcome.

I maybe wouldn't do the rnp now, since he could be too big/mobile for it before too long. My LO still sleeps in the rnp at 3 months and I'm thinking we'll have to transition him out of it soon.
Yeah... I only let her use it if she's napping next to me. At night she gets just the soothie or I take it out of her mouth once she's asleep.
**paranoid party of 1**
Same. I let them nap with Wubbanubs, blankets, etc because they nap in the living room where I can watch them easily. At night they don't get any of those things.
I let DD nap on her belly when she rolls bc I am awake and supervising. At night if she flips onto her belly I roll her onto her back or side
Also, hi! I miss you guys! We have family here visiting that we rarely get to see, including my positively adorable 2 year old nephew. But hosting relatives is keeping me busy and I haven't had much time to post.

dc2london, I wondered where you have been recently! You've posted just enough that I wasn't worried about you but thought you must be pretty busy. Glad you are busy with something enjoyable. :-)
FWIW, my pediatrician says at this point it is fine for them to nap on their stomachs as long as you are supervising... but both my babies are happy back sleepers so the only time they sleep on their bellies is when they fall asleep on us.
I know I'm only 8 weeks postpartum. I know I just stopped with pumping last week. I know I can't expect things to just be perfect. But, my weight loss leveled off a few weeks ago and now it's going back up. Ugh. I feel like such a hot mess who's faking so much (everything's GREAT!) to outside people.

Also, G's new habit is to pull out the wubbanub and then get upset about it. To stop her pulling it out we have to have something else in each hand. So this is how she naps these days:

Fake it till you make it, right?
I feel you. I feel fat.
Same. Super helpful that I was in a wedding at 5.5 weeks PP with a bunch of skinny-mini 20 something year olds. And then a week later strained a muscle by my hip joint because I dove too hard back into my workouts. My PT cousin said I'm a "classic" PP injury case and it's because my back and abdominal muscles are weak. Now I feel fat AND old.
I'm laughing at the questioning whether or not they're teething. Because DD2 has been "teething" her entire 2 years of life. It's become a joke between H and I, because really she's just a spunky kid. Yeah... spunky. Not sure what we'll place blame on once her last 2-year molar pops through.
