Brie cut her first tooth!

For months now I've been saying that Brie is teething pretty much anytime she's cranky, drooling excessively, wanting to eat all the time, not wanting to sleep, etc.

For the past week or so Brie has been all of the above.

I figured it was because I took some allergy medicine, so she was just hungry because I wasn't producing enough milk, then I got a blocked milk duct, and then I figured she was going through a growth spurt or something.

This afternoon I was thinking about it and going to tell Mat that maybe she's just teething and possibly that is why she's been Miss Cranky Pants and then I thought, no, he'll just tell me that is what I always say.

So I didn't say anything.

But lo and behold, this evening I was playing with her and the two white dots I saw earlier today looked like they had popped through so I touched her gums and yep, her first tooth has been cut! We'll see if it stays up. It was still up when I put her to bed.

A few weeks ago, her bottom gum was all swollen and streaky purple and I thought for certain that she was going to cut a tooth, but it just went away. That is why I'm not 100% certain that it will stay up!

  1. Yeah for Brie! I bet her mouth feels much better. You only have a few more restless nights until they have all popped through the gums.
