Plei, a wetdown, rolled up washcloth frozen in a baggie worked wonders for Em. (Take the baggies off before giving it to her. Not that I forgot. No, not at all.)
Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Have you tried the infant ibuprofen? While I think of it as being harder on the stomach, individual reactions may vary.

No doubt I will end up having a bunch of sweaty teen boys hanging here so a good fan might have to be added.

Steph, I'm so glad your Father is alright. I'm so sorry you were food-poisoned by gluna fish.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Cats bite harder than puppies. I have no current bites from my cat but a few scars.I have one on my ass. It is sometimes shocking that she has a home.
Cuuuuute puppy. They are my favorite dog I think.
I hope Tickybox is better and quieter soon.

Not allowed before 6 months, and it's the sweeteners that are the problem I think, though I'll try it when she's older. She's conked out at last, the poor dear.
I would eat her little toes, but that would wake her.

Oh, and Aimee, that's totally what my mother suggested. I just need to clear some freezer space and find where I've hidden my washcloth stash...

Plei, my Mom swore by kosher dills when we were teething. They stayed cold and had just the right amount of give.
Aimee seems to find this telling about how I turned out. Sometimes it is best to ignore Aimee.

Oh, that's right--Annabel didn't seriously teethe until around 6 months, so I forgot.

Mallory's in his ExerSaucer, talk-chanting to the Smiley Sun. I imagine he's saying "Oh, Baby's First Sun God, Oh Smiling One, Oh One that Rattles When I Grab Him, How I Worship You."

Ha!
Sadly, she's still too young for those, too. (Or not so sadly, because the dills in the house won't be ready to eat for another 10 days.) Hell, she's too young to be able to properly handle the teething rings; she's just figured out she has hands. Though, as the pictures suggest, she's also figured out what to do with them: [link]

What's up with this early teething thing, anyhow? I wasn't exactly prepared for it. Pete blames the comics, says I obviously did something weird trying to get her super powers, and this is my punishment or some such rot.
Seriously, though, she's comfortable most of the time. It only seems to bug her when she's already bugged by something else.
Raq, when I put Lily in her swing, I swear she's plotting with the bear and the seal.
