Teething Trauma

After months of wondering if Briggs would forever have only his two cute little chipmunk teeth we have our answer. As of Saturday we now see 6 teeth, 4 on top, 2 on bottom starting to emerge. While we are happy about the arrival of the teeth and the prospect of him eating real food the pain he is experiencing is heartbreaking. We have spent the last two night getting very little sleep or sleeping with him in his room. Thank you baby Tylenol for the few hours we have been able to get. it is so sad to see your little one in pain and if I could switch places with him I would in a heartbeat. From what I hear we should proably be through the worst of it, cross your fingers. Any and all advice on pain relief is wanted and needed. We will keep you posted on "teeth watch 09". Hope to have a picture soon of those new pearly whites.

God I just realized some day I will be sitting in the orthodontist office cursing myself for wishing these teeth would come in.
