Starting to lose my mind a little...

Ok, so let me start by saying how much I LOVE my little one... :D She's such a sweet little thing. :) Now, lets continue with the story.. haha. So, Naomi has been teething, non stop pretty much, since she was almost 6 months old. She currently has 4 teeth, and has another 4 coming through right now, possibly 5, but I can't tell for sure. She is such a sweet little thing normally but at night, when she should be sleeping, even with teething tablets, suspension drops, and her regular bottles she is waking up every 45 minutes or so for some company while she screams for a while. Now, normally the screaming thing would be hard on me just cause it's hard to watch your child hurt, but it's even harder now since I feel like I haven't slept in FOREVER... Anyone have any bright ideas to get her to sleep longer then 45-1hr at a time? HELP!!!!

I have no pointers... for my fam it just took time and a lot of understanding on hubbys side. I felt like I could bearly function with no sleep... you are in my prayers.

I am so sorry. EmmaRae last got 5 teeth (3 of them molars!) and that is when I thought I would loose m mind- you have my sympathy!! She liked pickles on her gums- nubby and cold. Um... I actually slept with her for three days (I never do this, but it was better to rub her back to get her back to sleep and only be awake for a few minutes) it was still exhausting but better than walking to her room every time and being awake forever. Sorry that you have to go through this too. Good luck!
