My little guy is not happy. Yesterday was all cotton candy and gum drops. But today? Another story.
He woke up around 5am crying. I didn't hear him (oops) and Jeff waited it out until he fell back asleep. This happened a few more times. Finally at 6 - Jeff went and got him and he stayed with his head on Daddy's shoulder for about 20 minutes, whimpering.
The next hour and a half, he would just stay on my shoulder, with intermittent bouts of crying. I gave him some Advil and just kept snuggling him. He drank a little bit, but his eyes are glassy and he's just so lethargic. He has no energy and is happiest in my arms. Which I am MORE than happy to do all day long.
He has a temperature of 101.5 so I'll keep a close eye on that. I think it's teething, but really, this is a first for me so I'll just monitor him closely and try and figure out what's going on.
My heart breaks seeing him like this.

- I'm a mom to two adorable boys: Carson and Beckett. I started this blog as a journal to keep track of Carson during his first year. One year turned into two years, and now we are in year three. And then along came Beckett so this will be about my TWO sweet little boys - the brothers. I plan on turning this into a book as a keepsake. Time flies so fast and it's so easy to forget when they first flipped over, when they got their first tooth, the sleepless nights etc.... this is my way of remembering.

Oh no!!! A temperature? If the advil doesn't bring it down pronto--to the doctor? Gosh, I hope the poor little nuggest gets better soon, my heart goes out to both of you!
I hope it's just a bad bout of teething, and that he's better soon. I know how hard it is to see them in pain - it's sooo heartbreaking. Hugs to both of you.
Poor guy! Hopefully the Advil & a couple of nice cold teething rings will keep him semi-comfy....and you from crying right along with him!
Hugs
How's Mr. C doing today? I hope he's better. Thinking of you guys.
btw - my little lady is still toothless, so i can't fully appreciate what you're going through. she's kind of a "when it rains, it pours" gal - so i'm expecting all of them to cut through at once. argh.:-(
