So for about 2 months now we've been dealing with teething and all the joys that come with teething. Rylan has drooled, chewed, cried, bit, and done just about anything to try to get relief. We've gone through 2 bottles of tylenol and used orajel. There was one night she let out screams every 45 minutes for about 4 hours straight. And then, on Sunday morning when I put my finger in her mouth to check for any signs of a new tooth I was so incredibly pleased to find one! Her first tooth on her lower gums popped through! Unfortunately though it was only one. She is very pleased to have her first tooth cut, but you can tell the one next to it is trying to push through as well. Hopefully it will only take a few days instead of 2 months :-)
In other Rylan news, she also seems to be going through an attachment phase. She wants to be held almost all of the time. And if you do put her down on her mat or exerciser she wants you right there along side. She cries if you leave the room or if some else tries to hold her and she can't see me or Chris. Its starting to get a little annoying, but I know its a phase lots of kids go through. Chris has noticed she's better with him letting her do her own thing. I've tried using my baby sling a few times and she seems to like it, but she's really grabby these days and wants to get her hands on everything in sight, including the raw chicken and knife I was cooking with the other day! So I'll keep trying to leave her to play by herself and I'm sure she'll continue to cry until I come back and hopefully she'll start to work through this phase soon enough. Oh the joys of motherhood :-)
