Molars are Coming

We forgot how painful it can be when molars start coming in. For the past week or so, Lauren has been waking up several times in the middle of the night in pain.
I don't recall Jack and Caroline being in such pain; then again that was 5 years ago. My, how soon we forget! HA.

Lauren had her one year check up and is slightly over 21 lbs and is in the 50 percentile for her weight and height. The Pediatrician did feel that Lauren's molars are coming through. Time to stop by the store to pick up the Ambesol meltaways. So far Tylenol has helped a bit. Anyone out there have any other suggestions to help ease the pain? We will not resort to our grandparents method of rubbing whiskey on the gums.

Jack and Caroline have had a fantastic week at Kindergarten and enjoy going to school! They asked how long they had to go and both Stacey and I said at least 12 more years. You should have seen the look on their faces, priceless!

Poor Sweetie :( Hope she feels better soon. Maybe try frozen celery sticks? Glad Jack and Caroline had a great week!

Nothing worked for Paige. I did use advil instead oftylenol it seemed to help some. Ive heard people say a cold washcloth but never tried it.
