Any tips anyone? I'm on my third night of no sleep. He's waking every 45 minutes all night long the poor little guy! I feel like I've tried everything.

Are you giving motrin? We have a teething necklace on lo, but on bad nights he has to have the meds too.

@Mrs. Lion: he's got an amber necklace on and has had nurefon which is our equilvant to Motrin.

@Mrs squirreld: are you on the right dose? we recently had to increase her dose...

@Mrs squirreld: LL is only 21 lbs and they had me go up to the 24 lb dose. My ped also said that during the worst times you can alternate Tylenol with motrin. So if he isn't due for another dose of the Motrin but is visibly hurting still I will give him a dose of Tylenol too. I try not to do more than one dose of Tylenol a day though (mostly because giving him that much medicine makes me nervous). But it seems to be working.
Hope it gets better soon!

We have had luck with Boiron Camilia, a homeopathic liquid (recommended by Mrs. Wagon). I've used it more on the days when it wasn't bad enough to warrant meds, but she still seemed pretty uncomfortable, and it seems to really help. It can be combined with meds, I believe, so you could give it a shot. We haven't had to use meds for the last two teeth, just this.
