Teething- steps backwards?
My 11 month old LO was the best baby lol... We would put her down to sleep and walk away... Now her 2 top teeth are coming in and omgggg poor baby is having a tough time  my DH and I have to hold her for about an hour until she's in a deep sleep- I'm not complaining about that bc I know she's hurting... What I'm concerned about is that I feel like we are taking steps backwards and after her 2 front teeth come in, she's still going to expect us to do this... Do u think she wil? I just feel like we are taking steps backwards... Will she got back into her routine after these 2 teeth come in?

Do you give her Tylenol? Motrin? Maybe giver her a dose an hour before bedtime. Babies are resilient to routines..a couple of days back on track should do it.
Your baby just wants comfort from her mommy & daddy..medicine should help you all out.

I've heard motrin (or any ibuprofen) is better for teething b/c it reduces swelling, and a lot of the pain from teething is from the gums swelling. It also lasts longer. When my son was teething really badly, I would give him a dose of ibuprofen before bedtime and it would let him sleep through the night vs. waking up crying and grabbing at his mouth. I also agree that their sleep routine will probably bounce back to normal once this bout of teething is over.
