Right now. It's pretty miserable. I'd like my happy baby back, please!

Smell her ears and see if they smell off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-976221 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 15:40:13 +0000 allison 976221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlebug: hmm, maybe I'll try this, too. We just got a couple of those feeders.</p> <p>@birdofafeather: I ran out and got some Hyland's (the store didn't have the Camilia). They seem to be helping? I'm probably just imagining things, but it makes me feel better at least. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-976211 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 15:37:17 +0000 shopaholic 976211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: Poor girl! Does she have any teeth yet? I don't have much to add, except hope you both hang in there and R goes back to her regular, sweet self again soon. I'd probably give a little Tylenol if it seems like pain. P.S. Can't believe how tall she looks sitting up in the crib now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-976209 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 15:35:41 +0000 littlebug 976209@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: Yeah, I think the mesh-ness feels good, too. If you know what I mean by "mesh-ness," ha ha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-976179 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 15:24:34 +0000 birdofafeather 976179@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlebug: oh, that's a good idea! i gave her a ice cube in a wash cloth, which helped but she likes that feeder i got too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-976176 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 15:23:15 +0000 littlebug 976176@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: Aww...poor R! D has been a bit of a handful the past couple of days, too. His 2 bottom teeth are popping through, and I think he's on the verge of mastering some new skill. Every now and then he'll push himself up and get up on his knees, but then his arms give out and he's kind of stuck on his face with his butt up, and that pisses him off. For the teething, he really likes when we give him an ice cube in the mesh feeder thingie - he goes nuts on it and it does help to calm him down a lot.</p> <p>Good luck, mama! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-976162 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 15:15:35 +0000 purrpletulips 976162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Teething plus learning new things. When DS first learned to get up on all 4s he would cry at night because once up, he didn't know how to get back down; he did the same thing when he first started rolling back to front. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-976072 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 14:47:56 +0000 birdofafeather 976072@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@allison: i have the hyland's and i'm going to get that camilia today! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-976071 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 14:47:29 +0000 birdofafeather 976071@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sammyfab: going to WF to pick some up today! i'm desperate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-976065 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 14:43:37 +0000 allison 976065@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This was recommended to me in another thread, and I'm thinking about getting some.

It was crazy!!! She will be back to normal soon I promise ! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-975981 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 14:14:49 +0000 Sammyfab 975981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When my LO was getting his molars and canines he would have screaming fits that lasted 20+ minutes where he was inconsolable and he wouldn't let me go near him. Thankfully they never affected his sleep. He was constantly putting his fingers in his mouth, he had neon red cheeks, drooling lots, eating little, and he had a runny nose. The best thing that worked for us was Camilia. Within 10 minutes he was a totally different baby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-975979 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 14:14:18 +0000 MsLipGloss 975979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: Me too. :( It sucks and is never easy . . . not to mention that time seems to stand still when LO is crying! (((hugs))) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-975972 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 14:12:15 +0000 birdofafeather 975972@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: i feel like a jerk for letting her cry (i'm usually fine with her tired sobs because i know she's fine) but literally nothing i was doing was helping, so i knew i needed to let her cry so she could get rest!</p> <p>@scg00387: she just did that on her own for the first time! we're definitely going to drop it tonight!</p> <p>@allison: thank God i'm not alone! i'm trying to gear up to last the week, but i don't know that i can go longer than that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-975961 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 14:10:00 +0000 allison 975961@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm right there with you! E has been a completely different baby this week, and I'm ready for it to be over. He can't even sleep in his crib now. I'm convinced it's teething and just hoping he gets the tooth/teeth soon so it'll be over with! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-975877 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 13:47:28 +0000 immabeetoo 975877@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would drop your crib if she's sitting up! Sounds like teething to me, my LO has a runny nose each time a tooth is cutting. For us, if he is screaming after all his needs are met and we don't think it's just because he's fighting his nap, we give ibuprofen. Hope she is back to normal soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-975853 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 13:41:42 +0000 MsLipGloss 975853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When LO started pulling up and cruising, we went through about a week of sleep regression . . . she would basically cruise the perimeter of her crib while crying/screaming. She never cried more than 30 minutes total before finally laying down, but man, it was a rough week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-975851 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 13:41:17 +0000 birdofafeather 975851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@2PeasinaPod: she sucks on her hand all the time, so that's nothing new, but the constant screaming and unhappiness is! it's actually one of her sleep cues to me, so i know she's exhausted and she does cry before sleep sometimes, but not bloody murder. i think the combination of all these things is driving her mad.</p> <p>@cascademom: i just texted DH the photo and said the same thing! she's never sat up like that so i was pretty shocked when i checked in on her! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-975846 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 13:39:57 +0000 cascademom 975846@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@2PeasinaPod: @birdofafeather: We get ear pulling when he's tired and ready for bed too. It's a weird little move he does, but when he goes to DH, it means bedtime. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-975839 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 13:38:29 +0000 cascademom 975839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: Yep, new skills plus teeth make for a super cranky baby. Looks like you're going to have to drop the crib soon! We've got teething and lots of assisted walking going on right now. My LO is a lovable beast right now. At least he was happy this morning when I fed him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-975834 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 13:37:25 +0000 2PeasinaPod 975834@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: Yes to that too! Once LO knew how to pull to standing, it's all he wanted to do in the crib. Almost as if he was showing off his new skill to himself!</p> <p>But...her hand in her mouth may be another sign if she doesn't always do that. My LO rams his fist into his mouth and pulls constantly at his ears when it's a particularly bad teething day. That's when I know to reach for the Tylenol since he usually will just whine if he's in a little pain. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-975833 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 13:37:10 +0000 lemondrop 975833@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My guy is usually very easy going, but there are times where he was really tough to deal with. My hardest months were 5 months and 10 months, on and off through the month it seemed like nothing I did made him happy. Just remember, this does pass and you will get your little darling back again soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-975826 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 13:35:50 +0000 hilsy85 975826@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: learning new skills can definitely cause craziness--I always think of it like the neurons just firing away all at once! Don't think that's actually what happens, but it makes sense in my head :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-975816 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 13:34:33 +0000 kiddosc 975816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>After trying everything else, I would give motrin. It definitely sounds like it could be teething and a dose of medicine isn't going to hurt her. Our pediatrician recommended motrin over tylenol for teething pain. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-975813 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 13:33:48 +0000 birdofafeather 975813@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@2PeasinaPod: i think i'm about to! i just found this on the monitor.... she has only ONCE to my knowledge sat up on her own and it was from a weird position. i put her on her back to sleep. do learning new skills cause babies to go crazy?! </p> [attach=1362/13/mqri8d.600x400.photo.PNG] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-975812 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 13:33:27 +0000 hilsy85 975812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely sounds like teething...runny nose was the ONLY symptom my LO had recently, and two teeth popped in a few days later. I agree with trying tylenol at night if she's crying. Hang in there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easy-going-baby-going-apesht#post-975786 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 13:29:31 +0000 2PeasinaPod 975786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sounds like teething to me! S has been a beast lately, and out popped a bottom front tooth and of all things a top left canine! Whose kid gets their canine as one of their first teeth? Oh right...my little vampire. </p> <p>Hang in there mama...have you thought about giving even a half dose of Tylenol to see if it helps during a particularly bad spell? </p>
