After months and months of showing typical signs of teething (like drooling and excessive biting) our little man finally showed his first teeth. YAY!!! When the first tooth finally made an appearance I felt like he had been teething for the longest time ever (he showed first signs of teething at 4 months!). Anyway the first two are out now and this week we've had some very rough nights as he is now getting another two (or so we think).
I found it very frustrating to witness the extremely slow process of teething without ever seeing anything until the very end. Through all of this I picked up a somewhat useful trick to find out how far along the teeth are. Basically give them something see-through to bite on, like a transparent plastic cup. Usually you can tell where the teeth are as they are biting on it. Not that it makes those nights any easier but at least you know the teeth are coming :-)
