Goodbye Tummy Bug Hello Teething

17th January 2010 by Hellie

Yes, the tummy bug is gone. It took him more or less 10 days before he started eating properly again. However he is still refusing food from jars. So it is only home-cooking that works. Oh well I guess it is better that way anyway!

But the teething is back, three new teeth in the upper jaw are showing up. With the teething are the sleepless nights back once again. I don’t think I have had a proper nights sleep for over 2 weeks now. So it is fair to say my fatigue is not happy. Or indeed it is happy and back. Makes me wonder what it will be like coming back to work when I can’t lay down and have a rest during the day. If it wasn’t for the two naps he has when I lay down with him, I don’t think I could even function. It does scare me a bit what it will be like going back to work, I do miss working, but I wonder what my fatigue and all that malarkey will do. I have been so lucky not having any relapses, so I guess it is far to say the more stressed and tired I am the worse my MS gets. So I really hope that things will be ok once I got back to work too.

11 hours

of sleep is what Tycho had last night! Well at one point he woke up but went back to sleep as soon as Steve went upstairs and put his music box on. Hopefully he will start sleeping through the nights once again. He now has got two teeth in his bottom jaw, but I think one is on it’s way in the upper one too as he has been having teething pains all of today, but atleast it doesn’t keep him awake at night any longer.

Sleeping, Crying and Teething

19th August 2009 by Hellie

Went to see the health visitor at the heath centre yesterday, had my little guy weighed and asked if our suspicions about him teething were correct, and it does seem that he is. She did point out it may be a few months of yet before we actually get to see any pearly whites. So we can try some teething gel if it gets really bad. So far we have only given him Calpol. He is not too bad really, but if something else is something else is bothering him like lack of food or sleep, then he can have a huge crying fit were the tears are flying and his little face goes tomato red.

Mum with cold + son with teething = not so good

13th August 2009 by Hellie

I seem to have caught a cold. I guess in these flu seasons I am lucky it is only a cold. The news have really scared me about swine flu and for a while I was just thinking about how to avoid it non stop.  But since Monday I have been sniffing and sneezing. Not great, I am feeling rather blerghy. And to make things worse I think Tycho is teething, he is drooling like a trooper and chews on his fist and fingers all the time. I have also spotted something on his gum in his lower jaw that looks a bit like something raising underneath. Now the drooling I can take, I seem to be just as soaked as him at times, but at times he cries and cries and cries. A wailing cry whilst chomping away on his fist, and his sleeping has become worse. He was actually sleeping from about 11 pm to 7 am but now he doesn’t want to go to sleep and he wakes up around 4 crying. I was planning on taking him down to the health centre this week to ask if my suspicions are correct about the teething before I start applying bonjela and giving him Calpol, but since I got this cold we have been stuck indoors sniffing and drooling together!
