Holy Crap - they are yell monsters!

I truly don't remember our DD's yelling this much...ever. For the past week or so they seem to yell all day long. Upon waking up in the morning. After nursing. After solids. Upon nap wake up. After nursing. During playing. After solids. Etc, Etc, Etc.

I know they are both teething pretty bad and we're doing our best to manage it. Using Motrin, ice or frozen fruit in mesh teethers, and frozen washcloths. We even broke down and bought baby orajel.

Is this a phase or something? Do they actually like yelling?

Holy crap.

 

It could be a phase or their teeth. Do they seem really upset or are they just yelling to hear themselves yell? If they have no other symptoms, I would say it's probably just a phase that will pass (hopefully sooner rather than later for your poor ears!).

 

I bet they just like hearing themselves yell. I agree with Tina, probably just a phase.

 

my girls yell all day long, but not in pain. i believe it's all in fun because it's followed by giggles. it's cute, but it does get rather loud.

 

It's hard to say since they are teething pretty bad. Sometimes I swear they are just yelling since they like the way their voices echo in our great room. When there is tears accompanied by yelling, I'm assuming it's their teeth.

 

Around that age Jake started screaming. He was doing it just to hear himself and test how loud/quiet he could get. I bet they are just experimenting and learning about themselves. Of course, with tears, its probably the teething! We found that by ignoring Jake's behavior he stopped quicker than if we reacted to it.

 

Amber shrieks all day long too, i've noticed she does it alot more when she is practicing a new move or concentrating alot, it sort of builds to a crescendo right before nap time aswell lol I hope she learns a new sound very soon as it is wearing thin.
