Same symptoms as your (adorable!) little girl. Look for congestion, too--or was it a runny nose? Apparently it messes with their sinuses as well. But yeah, she's been chewing her fingers, our fingers, anything she can get her little hands on. And not really crying much, so apparently she's not in terrible pain or anything. But the drool is definitely nonstop. She's been using that gel stuff, can't remember what it's call, but apparently there are some "tabs" she mentioned that people supposedly swear by; I'd never heard of them and don't know what they're called, but you might want to check those out, too. "Teething tabs" is what you'd ask for, I guess, at a drugstore.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5467707429335041228.post-70969403492607769522005-04-23T10:55:00.000-06:002005-04-23T10:55:00.000-06:00Hey Brandi and Damonsome things that I have heard ...Hey Brandi and Damon<br>some things that I have heard are the baby oragel....also a cold damp washcloth works well....still going to check some more things out..<br>Talk to you soon!

You...Hey Brandi, Yes, it does sound like teething. You can buy these wonderful teething things at Target that you put in the freezer and or refrig, she will love that. Also like Tara said, oragel works wonderful,and you can take a damp washcloth and put it in freezer so its cold for her. At bedtime give her some baby tylenol, that will help her be able to sleep without waking up with pain. She can have that every 4hrs. The less pain she is in, the happier baby she will be. Baby teeth can go up and down, and last for months before they actually come out, the first ones are the hardest, and the "eye" teeth (the fangs) are the worst. Watch her dipers, because it can also cause diper rash. Hope this helps. <br>Take care<br>SusieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5467707429335041228.post-71347077110463186442005-04-25T14:31:00.000-06:002005-04-25T14:31:00.000-06:00That's what Madeline experienced when she was gett...That's what Madeline experienced when she was getting her first teeth. When she was very obviously in pain I gave her some Tylenol or the Hyland's Teething Tablets. Baby Orajel didn't work for us - it slid right off her little gums! No wonder there are warnings about it being a potential choking hazard ...<br><br>I had to giggle at the photo of Abby snoozing because my little shmoo will sleep with her arms out in our bed too :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5467707429335041228.post-30509190209300177672005-04-30T14:21:00.000-06:002005-04-30T14:21:00.000-06:00She is SO cute!
