I haven't slept well at all the past few days. The Bean has decided to regress to waking up every 2 1/2 to 3 hours at night needing to be fed. I "wake up" every morning with a pounding, lack-of-sleep headache and a down-to-my-bones fatigue.
I talked to a girlfriend today who said "oh honey, she's probably teething."
So I asked Dr Internet, and he said the symptoms are:
-Excessive drooling (check. but she drools all the time, so how do I know if this is excessive?)
-Sleep disturbances, day and night (double check. She doens't want to nap any longer than 20 minutes, and I have to get up with her 3-4 times a night)
-General crankiness (on whose part? Mine? CHECK.)
-Chewing on anything and everything (check.)
I don't see any little bumps at her gum line, but if teething is just beginning, I might not, right?
So she's either teething, or acting like any normal 4 month old.
Moms? Dads? Any suggestions?
