Teething

Teeth number 3 is making it's way out now. As with teeth number 1 and 2, it's not a pleasant experience for all of us. Sleep gets disrupted as he wakes up whimpering in pain and has to try to put himself back to sleep again and again. Appetite is low. Enthusiasm to practice chewing became non-existent, hence back to soft and mushy food. Activeness during playtime remains the same, with occasional complain or cry of pain whilst putting his finger in his mouth. When it gets too bad, we administer paracetamol and Bonjela (nearly got our fingers bitten off many times). All we can do is to try our best to make him comfortable. Not easy being a toddler.

3 down, 17 more to go...JOY!
