The 4th molar finally broke through the other day!!! Her first set of molars are now present and done with. That probably explains why, a few nights ago, she woke up in the middle of the night screaming and crying her head off for 2 hours straight. During those 2 hours, I tried comforting her, and nothing was working. Holding her, cuddling her, stroking her back, humming to her, sitting down with her, laying her back down in bed, nothing. I felt so helpless not knowing what was wrong with her, especially since all of my comforting techniques that usually work on her, wasn't doing a darn thing to calm her down. And she wouldn't stop crying and screaming. My heart was breaking not knowing what was wrong... Especially since Madison NEVER wakes up in the middle of night.
Now that the last of the 1st set of molars has broken through, Madison is finally taking her naps again... Sort of. Well, its been 4 days in a row now that she's actually taken some sort of nap in her crib. 1st day was for 50 minutes, 2nd day was for about an hour and 10 minutes, 3rd day was for 40 minutes, and today... Well, an hour has gone by so far... :) This is a welcoming relief to me especially since it has been about a good 2 months since she's last had consistent naps! Even though they aren't her once normal 2 - 3 hour naps, at least she's getting something in! I thought I was dead meat last week when Madison had gone 8 days straight without one single nap. I was freaking out thinking that maybe she's over her naps and probably won't ever take one ever again! Thank goodness that didn't happen!
So now Madison has 12 teeth in that little mouth of hers... Not sure when her canines and her 2nd set of molars are suppose to come in, but let's hope she gets a good break from it for awhile! 8 more teeth to go to complete her entire baby teeth set!
Here are Madi's teeth that have come in so far...
