LO is 7 months and has no teeth yet. He was extra crabby this weekend (very unusual for him). Fighting naps and doing a lot of full on crying. He also has starting yelling/screaming when he wakes up at night (which is frequent).
Nothing else is wrong - no sickness, no fever, diapers are normal.
I throw a boob at him in the MOTN when he screams, and he nurses vigorously!
What is going on with this crazy baby?

@cmomma17: sounds like it!! that's exactly how DS was when cutting his FOUR TOP TEETH AT THE SAME TIME. I think we had a period of aobut 10 days where he fought naps like crazy, his nighttime sleep was generally unaffected but he did have a cpl nights of random wakeups with shrieking 
hope it passes quickly and the teeth cut soon!!!

@mrsjyw: I swear he was up 17 times last night. Screaming each time, even if the screams were only for a second. Poor little guy. He's normally a super happy, easy going baby, so when he was full on crying this weekend I knew something had to be up! He only cries that hard when he gets shots!
I can't feel anything in his mouth yet though. Any tips for making him feel better?

@cmomma17: aww poor babe! we used different teethers, a wasn't really into the frozen ones, but he did like the green sprouts rings. he mostly just liked our fingers tho! we tried hylands teething gel, tablets, etc. and a lil bit of ibuprofen, but honestly? i don't know if anything really helped! just extra snuggles and time-- all of those other things to pass the fussy periods as quickly as possible!!

@mrsjyw: Yeah, C prefers fingers too! He loves when I check his gums for teeth, lol 
He's home with daddy today so I'll suggest some frozen teethers. We were gifted some teething tablets but I'm not a huge fan of giving him stuff like that. We'll see! Thanks!
