In the last couple of nights, Sebastian has had a harder and harder time getting to sleep. In the past, he would just fuss once or twice a night and we’d pop his pacifier (aka suce) in his mouth and PRESTO! Sleep, sweet, sweet sleep. But now, something is amiss. Some dark, nefarious force is battling to keep him up (and crying)… a force so evil I can hardly bear to speak its name….
TEETH! We think the boy’s getting teeth.
He’s a bit young so we hadn’t really considered it but he’s been drooling excessively for a few weeks which corroborates our suspicion.
Their 4-month check up is tomorrow so I guess we’ll find out then if this is indeed the beginning of a looooong and whiny road.
UPDATE (02/25/09): The doctor can neither confirm not deny the onset of teething so we’ll just have to wait and see. So far, the symptoms seem to have subsided.
