Your comeuppance is served...


Remember my gleeful post a few weeks ago about how she was sleeping through the night 50% of the time? Yeah. Well. Then teething happened. It's been, oh, about two weeks since she slept through the night and we've had some rough nights recently. The other night, she was up FOUR TIMES and has been running a slight fever a lot of the time. A couple more teeth are visible just below the gums, which look swollen and pretty red. She enjoys a good teething biscuit-- a huge mess to clean up but delectable. And she rejects being fed; she will feed herself or nothing.

Gregory is relapsing in the sleep department, too, but what I really want to say is that this photo looks like something from Baby Vogue. Tres chic!

hey - have you tried hyland's teething tablets? they've been helpful as Kai's been working on his ridiculously early molars! the other (not very helpful thing) is that from what I've heard, 6 or 7 months through 9 or 10 months tends to be a better time for sleep, and then around 8, 9, or 10 months, there's often another "regression" like that miserable one back around 4 months...teething, as you say, can be a factor, as can emerging separation anxiety and developmental leaps...
