First, Congrats to all the New Mothers, expecting, etc... on the board.  I see lots of new faces and new stories. Congrats again.  I have been missing in action and very busy!

Blaze will be 4 months old this coming Friday. Time does fly on by that is for sure. She is almost 18 pounds in a size 6-12 months and a big healthy baby. She smiles all the time, except when i leave the room....lol

She has been teething badly for at least a month, then on Thanksgiving weekend she was very fussy and warm. Popped out in 2 days were her 2 bottom teeth!  At 3 1/2 months old???  That is just crazy.  Her teeth are so cute when she smiles......Now she is teething more and i can see a little pearl popping out on the top also.  She stays a big slobbery mess, and her face has a little red rash from being wet all the time.

My question is this.........Is it ok to give her Tylenol everyday and of course only if needed?

We love the Hylands teething tabs and **I** think they work miracles, lol

We go for her 4 months shots next week and i plan on asking her Pedi then about it all.

Just wanted some input.

TIA!!

I LOVED the teething tablets. They worked wonders on my daughter. Also Orajel was good too. I gave my daughter Tylenol to help with the pain. There were some days she got it every 4-6 hours and then other days she only got it when she was fussy and a drooling mess. Hang in there... Teething takes alot of patience.  :)

Wow! I have read that babies as young as 2 months can get teeth! Rowan has really ramped up the drooling and been fussy for a couple of days, so I keep thinking he is teething as well but I haven't spotted anything yet. I've just been doing tyelnol at bedtime, he hasn't been that fussy during the day as long as we keep him occupied. I might have to try those teething tabs though.

I know I've already shared this before, but your kids are adorable! Love your new avie too.

Congrats on the teeth! Everett's bottom 2 just broke through the gums this week (he's 6.5 mos). Our ped has always advised no to use Tylenol more than 48 hours in a row because it can mask symptoms of real illness (fever).

I've been using the tablets since Beth's FB discussion and I LOVE them. I took 2, but it didn't do anything for me. LOL. Everett loves the netted safe feeder filled with frozen grapes or peas. The age recommendation is 6+ mos though. We're building a boat since the drool is non-stop :D

Love the pictures!
I have only had to give Lucas Tylenol twice I guess he his teeth don't hurt so bad, he only has the one so far on the bottom but the one right beside I know will bust through any day now it is right there!
I use the tablets religiously all day long everyday! I am so thankful you told me about them!

Luca**** 18 pounds last weekend and wears the same size clothes as Blaze!
