here she is 14 months old, and sweet tatum still has 7 teeth. well a couple days ago, i noticed she is finally cutting the other bottom one, which would make an even 8 - 4 on top, 4 on bottom. she's been really fussy, a little sick and will not let me out of her sight the past few days. i knew she was cutting that tooth, so i've tried to be patient. anyway, today it was just unbearable, so i started feeling around in her mouth (ouch!) and found that she is also cutting at least 4 molars all at once. i couldn't be sure, but there was definately teeth popping up all over her poor gums. i cannot imagine the pain! i tried rubbing baby tylenol on her gums where i felt the teeth and she loved it! she sucked on my finger like it was candy. obviously i can only do that a few times per day. she's not a big fan of teething toys, so i really don't know what else i can do. i don't remember what i did for avery when she was teething, but i'm pretty sure she never got 5 at once! if anyone has any advice, please share!

No advice, but much sympathy. I put a wet washcloth in the freezer and them let them chew on it.
have you tried a kong toy? tex loves them :) actually, that's a lie, tex doesn't touch them, except his kong frisbee.
thank you my dear brother for your insight. i will definately stop by petco while i'm out today and see what they have on the teething isle.
