Poor teething baby
Lilian had a low grade fever on Sunday and Monday. She was just so pitiful. And, there were no symptoms... So, my guess is that she is teething. She soaked about 2-3 bibs a day with slober and bit down on everything that went in her mouth (yeah, ouch...). I tried Orajel, but that made her cry more and make spitting noises. The cold teething ring sort of worked, but I don't think she liked the cold sensation. So, my sweet, laid-back baby has been a whiny, crying little girl for 2 days. She's at daycare today, so I'll have to ask them how today went. Good news, though, is that the teething has not interrupted her sleep as of yet. She's still sleeping 10 hours a night. That's my girl!!

Motrin is the best we've found for teething. It seems to work better than tylenol. (I've heard this from other moms too!) Good luck! Parker is working on tooth #5 right now, so I feel your pain!
Yeah. My mom is a pharmacist, and she said be careful with the motrin and only use it when the doctor says to. My little sister had a pretty serious allergic reaction to it when she was 2, so she's not one to suggest the motrin...
Wow! #5! It is crazy how quickly they grow!
