There's a reason no one remembers being a baby. It's hard. It's confusing. And, it seems
pretty painful and frustrating a lot of the time. Imagine having to shriek every time you go to
the bathroom simply so you won't have to sit in your own filth, or twisting and
turning to get to sleep because your muscles aren't quite strong enough to get
you positioned comfortably. Or worse yet- growing teeth.
Having gone through labor without an epidural, I can
honestly say I know my pain threshold pretty well. That being said, I still
hate the dentist and believe that any teeth-related pain I've had is up there
with the worst pain ever. I'm so glad I
don't remember actually growing them.
Baby B is now 5 months old, and he's embarking on that wonderful
journey. At first, it was hard to tell
if his occasional increased fussiness was caused by teething. Soon we started
to see some clear signs.

Biting toys:
At 5 months old, Baby B likes: biting things, blankets, Max,
drumming, eating, and bath time.
He dislikes: sleeping, sitting still, dirty diapers and
being buckled in.
Even though teething has been rough at times, he still
usually looks like this :)
