Poor Jellybean is teething.
I know, she's been teething for what seems like ages. AGES.
But she's got 4 teeth (eye teeth? canines? gah, I'd be a terrible dentist) breaking through all at once. And she's miserable.
Yesterday, she picked at the gums over one tooth until she was bleeding. My beautiful little baby was wandering around the house with bloody drool, like a pre-school version of cujo. Her pale, pale skin ruddy with blood. Even the wispy blonde tendrils got a bit pink.
She's also got a cold. Of course.
She's in bed right now. She went down well. But ever 4 or 5 minutes she cries. This woeful, piteous lament of mama, mama, mama.
She's had tylenol, and an icy (frozen teether). There's not much more I can do....
It breaks my heart to hear my baby cry.
