Cuts like a...

Poor Bean! We've been waiting on the FIRST TOOTH to rear its razory edge, but, in true Bean style, she's skipping the middleman and cutting two at once.

She was more than fussy today: all out crying. It breaks my heart to see her little face, chin trembling, arms flailing - and real tears. Thank goodness nursing seems to help - at least I feel like I'm doing something for her.

Why does nature make teething so painful? Doesn't seem right.

Poor bébé! Does anything else help? Half-frozen, wet facecloth? Frozen banana? Orajel??

She can't stand anything frozen! I've tried it all. Wet facecloth is a bathtime favorite though... I'll give that a try. Thanks! :-) She seems better today, thankfully.
