How did you know it was due to teething, and how long did these periods of teething last? What would you do if he/she woke up multiple times a night? Is CIO even an option when they are in pain? Did you nurse?

I can't say that I've ever been able to say that a night waking was due to teething!

I have not had a night waking due to teething.

Well, hard to say. When his teeth were cutting he was waking up like once an hour most of the night. I would nurse him almost to sleep and put him back in the crib. I'll let him cry a bit when he first goes down but not the rest of the night.
When he wasn't cutting teeth he would sleep most of the night (maybe 1-2 wakeups, one an hour after he went down and one 2 hours before he got up for the day) so I do attribute the near constant wakeups with teething, but he's also been working on and hit a few big developmental milestones the past week or two so it could be that as well.

i think her first night waking is teething. i don't have any other explanation. she wakes about an hour after going down, completely inconsolable. she's not hungry, refuses the pacifier, just screams screams screams. If I give her tylenol and cuddle her, she'll calm down, take the pacifier and go back to sleep, and then stay asleep. The nights I gave her tylenol before putting her down to begin with, she actually stayed asleep. So I'm not sure..
