My son is 9 months old. He has been teething for the last 3-4 months. He used to sleep so well before then. He has 8 teeth now and I think he is working on 9 and 10. The last several nights he has woken up around 3:30 am and refused to go back to sleep. He is tired, and actually his eyes are even closed, but he is restless, squirming and whining or crying. I hate to medicate him but we do give him the Boiron camilia. He won't nurse.
Â
He's been fighting going to sleep at bedtime and at naps. So he has been up until 9 or 10, wakes up at 3:30, we try to get more sleep and maybe he might sleep for 30 minutes here or there until 6:30. I'm exhausted, and I really think he needs more sleep than that!
Â
Any advice? Teething has been rough this whole time but should it be getting worse? Are some teeth harder than others or is something else going on? Should I give him something stronger than the Camilia? I have never given him anything like Tylenol or Motrin. Any thoughts on why he would be crying or fussing but not even opening his eyes?Â
