Hi
I can't believe this is normal. My DD suffers from teething pain so badly that she cannot sleep and is totally miserable for 3-4 days at a time. When I say can't sleep, I mean even with 4 hourly calpol and neurofen at max doses for her age. She can be driven to sleep in the car, but it takes ages for her to drop off and then only lasts 40 mins or so. All the time she is awake she is screaming, writhing and not distacted by TV, toys, cuddles etc.
I can't bear it. She is obviously in so much pain.
What else can we try? It doesn't help that she always seems to have other random symptoms too - this time bad ulcers and a rash on her bottom, legs and arms. But only a mild temp of 37.5
