Are you sure it's morning??

I'm having a duvet day today - LO was crying/screaming most of the night in his sleep? So DH rang his mum and she has taken him for the day so I can try to catch up on missed sleep. Can't at the moment though as all the children are walking past the house to get to the local primary.

Could it be a tooth coming through Dora?

Possibly? I'll check later on when LO comes back.. forgive me for being thick but what other things should I look for as to signs of teething?

ooh Heaton Park is only 15 mins away in the car from me and just up the road from the IL's and it's lovely to have a picnic in, it was somewhere we considered when getting married, was just a tad too expensive!

Marley was thinking that it'd be very :money: to have a picnic, rather than meeting up for coffee or drinks. Perhaps a little easier for shy people too, they can bring the whole family and only join in if they want. Wouldn't be just the Parent thread gang, would be open to our Arms mateys and pretty much everyone else on the site.

Someone remind me about this idea next spring and I'll start working out what'd be needed.

Drool, red cheeks, nappy rash, fever, ridgey gums or white spots on the gums... but not necessarily any of these...

Ooh, I haven't been through it yet so others will be able to advise better than me, but dribbling and redness of the cheeks are symptoms.

I also remember reading on here about a teething powder that everyone said was really good. Can't remember what it was called though

Bruno beat me to it

Yes d'oh, Choppy's link reminds me that obviously biting or gumming a lot are a symptom, being put off their feed is, and the interesting rubbing or pawing at the ear definitely is, we always get that one.
