The hand that feeds you -

Isn't there a saying about not biting the hand that feeds you?! If someone can kindly explain that to my teething daughter - I'd be much appreciative. Getting bit on the breast is FAR worse than the hand in my opinion...ugh.

I emailed my friend Kelly and trolled the internet for suggestions - but thankfully it looks like this phase has passed. It seems little Claire is sprouting a few upper teeth AND lower teeth at the same time. Poor miserable creature, I had to pump so Dan fed her last night and then we rubbed some orajel on her gums and gave her some Tylenol. Once she was half asleep I deemed it safe to nurse her and thankfully I was right.

Honestly, last night was THE hardest hour with Claire. She's sleeping soundly in my lap right now (eyes half open as usual) and we had no problems this morning (phew).

Ok, I feel better after my little vent :-)
