Uh-oh! The 1st tooth is coming out...it's not gonna b a gd period...the teething phase is tough & pitiful. He looks cute wif that 1 white thing abt to pop out of his lower gum...but I think he's not too comfy wif it. He keeps playing wif it using his tongue & making dis cute sucking sounds as tho he's sucking a sweet!!
I anticipate crankiness. I wish der's something I cld do to soothe his discomfort, teethers aside (it doesnt work for him for long...he prefers our fingers - ladies' fingers!)! Mommies out der...tips pls...wat did u do wen u were going tru dat phase wif ur kiddos? Maasi wont be able to bear seeing her hero suffer.
[Princess...u oso teething problem rite?!?! Hehehe...kidding babe...wen I think of Amsyar's teething troubles, I think of ur suffering oso u noe!!]
Oh, guess what? He sleepcrawled agn last nite. Same timing. Mom heard some "uh..uh.." sound (his attempts to wriggle dwn & make his way to the fan)...so Mom screamed softly at him "Hoi! Where u going?!?!" ... and guess wat he did? He excitedly grinned @ her cheekily...so mom pulled him by his feet & dragged him back to where he belongs!! Haha. This morning Mom tol me "...he tot of paying u a visit last nite but got caught red-handed!" A while ago, Mom reminded me "Tonite if u hear a knock on ur door, dun open..." I gav her a puzzled look, wondering if she's trying to scare me wif some ghost story or wat (I'm not scared of ghost btw!)...then she added "it cld be Amsyar!" Haha...gd joke Mom! He ah, I tel u, bila jln, he tido, bila tido, he jln!!
This morning I spent a wonderful time wif him b4 going to work @ 11am. We played; We vibed; We snapped pics (been a while since I played wif my Casio digital camera).

Ok, based on my lil one's experience, I find that if you let them suck on some soothing water filled toys they'll like it. I put them in the fridge before giving it to Sara [make sure its not next to anything that can contaminate it], and the cool sensation is very soothing to the gums. usually the pain will go away after the first few teeth pop out, but they usually get cranky at night, and may also run a mild fever, and diarrhea...good thinbg to note is that now is the perfect time to start on dental hygiene...like gently cleaning their gums cos bacteria can get in there and cause sickness like diarrhea. I used prodcts like Orajel gum cleansers [no flouride please, bad for baby's health right now]...ok lah too much said already, let me know how thigns go ok? You r a good maasi:) Very caring!

Hehe...tks Zarina...I love kids...so I cant bear to see kids suffer. U know the old folks like to wrap babies (the malays call it "bedung")...now that's 1 thing I cant bear to see a kid being wrapped if they're awake. If they're asleep it's fine.
