Is she eating her solids? It could be because her gums are bothering her. Try ice pops with frozen milk or pureed vegetables/fruit. Maybe some oragel might ease her discomfort and will facilitate drinking/ eating?

@Dianna she’s eating baby cereal, and purée

It's very normal for babies that are teething. My LO always nurses like garbage while she is teething, but goes back to normal once it cuts through!

@Amanda okay thanks !! She has one tooth that cut through but now another top one starting to come and 2 bottom ones 😩😩😩😩😩

They just keep coming one after the other, it kind of sucks not going to lie 😅😂 we had a two week break after her 8th one cut and now she is showing signs of teething again. I don't know if i should laugh or cry 😅😂

@Amanda haha I feel that 🤣🤣🤣🫠🫠🫠🫠 I said as a joke watch her getting all 4 at same time cause first one was a top tooth instead of bottom well lucky me LOL I was right 🫠

I saw a mention above about oragel. I don’t really recommend oragel. I recommend staying with Tylenol at night and continue the teething ice pops. I did this with my little one. It’s been helping without the need of oragel.

I’d recommend putting some clove oil on her gums where her new teeth is showing and it will help with the pain it’s natural and basically does the same job as orajel

@Andrea OK thank you I also have Camilla drop
