Molar blues


Oscar hasn't cut any teeth since February - just has the four on top and two on bottom.  Last Saturday he started getting really fussy, so I tried to feel if he was cutting any molars.  I did feel one, and it turned out to be awful for him.  All day - and night - Sunday and Monday he was just miserable.  He  soaked through four bibs each day and wouldn't eat any thing except cold yogurt, even though he was clearly hungry for more.  He even had a lot of trouble nursing.  Every hour or two at night he would wake up crying so we'd just cuddle and watch YouTube videos until he calmed down enough to rest some more.  Thankfully, after a few days of this, he is feeling back to his usual cheerful self, which is a huge relief for everyone. There is still only one molar, so hopefully he doesn't have to go through this exact sequence three more times, but at least he is good for now!
