    Woke up today expecting to have a relaxing day but the babies have decided that was not a good idea. Started with lots of crying and screaming, then diarrhea. Well I think I know why...teeth...or should I say, a tooth. Lucas grabbed my finger and pulled it in his mouth...there was something that felt odd, so I looked and on his lower gum is a little white piece of tooth poking through. He just a bit ago cried himself to sleep. Nothing is calming him today. Gave Tylenol around 11am. Have some of the baby wash clothes in the freezer for him to chew on when he wakes up. Dillon doesn't seem to have anything coming through but he also has diarrhea, so will see. I really did not think teething started this early. Guess I was wrong. Can I use anything on their gums or are they too little?

    Yay for toofies! A little baby Orajel on their gums is fine.

    :banana: for the first tooth. I agree that a bit of Orajel will help for a bit.

    Called my hubby and told him to pick up baby oragel when he goes to the store after work. Will look into the teething tablets. Have never heard of them.

    Teething does bite LOL

    What? Babies can be born with teeth? I had no clue. Do you think your babies will get them somewhat early since you did?

    I lived and breathed by teething tablets. They do not numb them and turn them into little drool buckets as much as oralgel does.
    Hylands and Humpreys also Little rememdies have teething tablets. Love love love them... wow 4 months huh?
