Teething
Now whoever said that teething is the worst when they get their first teeth is completely full of it. My Elsi Love is getting her top teeth now (I feel that she is too young to get those already, she is only 9 months). She is getting what seems to be 3 of them. AT ONCE!! She is very restless and uneasy at night. I try the motrin and the orajel and the teething rings (Which she hates) and nothing is working well enough to give us a full nights rest. I haven't had a full nights sleep in almost 4 nights now. I have slept on the couch with her in her swing the past two nights!!! I think she may also be learning to have separation anxiety, because if she wakes up alone in her crib, she screams until the whole house is awake. So the poor thing wakes up so upset and then she starts grabbing whatever she can (usually her poor fuzzy rabbit)and starts biting and pulling on it with her teeth (that poor rabbit isn't going to have any ears soon). She is also grinding her teeth, HARD. It makes my ears bleed just hearing it. I think she is going to break a tooth off doing this. As much as I don't want my beautiful baby to grow up, I am will be so glad when this whole teething thing is over with.
