Re: Question!
give him some motrin and that should make him feel better, and my son just got his 2 teeth too and he's still grouchy because he's getting more teeth. but motrin works really good for us, and some of those pedialite popsicles if he won't eat. Don't want him to get dehydrated or anything.

Re: Question!
No problem! That sucks cause pedialite was great for my baby. You could try just regular popsicles, the ones you buy that are liquid and that you have to freeze yourself are the best because they don't have tons of sugar in it so I think it would be fine for him to eat. I know I gave them to brayden when he was really young just because he lovedddd the taste of it. but yeah, motrin is some good stuff!

why can't he have pedialyte?

finn got really sick around 10 weeks (i don't really remember when it was for sure) and was vomiting and basically pooping water, the doctor told me to give him pedialyte to keep him hydrated and to make sure he had at least 4 wet diapers in 24 hours.
