Tooth Explosion!


This has been an incredibly challenging week for Jacob. He has 5 or 6 teeth coming in at one time. I say 5 or 6 because I can see 5 for sure and given which teeth they are I know there's one more on the way. As you can imagine, this has been causing Jacob a lot of pain. We thought he might have an ear infection because he was getting over a cold a week ago and the doctor suggested it might happen. We took him to the doctor on Monday and his ears are fine. I was pretty happy about it but that also meant that his weekend of screaming and refusing to nurse was solely due to his teething. He's been on an on-and-off nursing strike for a few days and it's been awful. Tomorrow we're on our way to California which is a six-hour flight. Good luck innocent passengers!
