calgon, take me away!!!!!

wow. this would really NOT be a good time to go into labor. i'm pretty positive that the parents-on-call (for kendal) would not want to keep him. he has cried and cried for several days now, isn't interested in eating, and won't sleep in his crib. last night, for example, he cried for 45 minutes before we finally just put him in our bed - then he went to sleep. he drooled all night. he's also had bad diarrhea all week, and the diaper rash to match. desitin helps some. this morning he woke up crying. crying and thrashing. didn't want a bottle. didn't want his daddy to read his favorite book, didn't want us near him, didn't want us far from him. didn't want to be picked up, didn't want to sit up, didn't want to lay down, really - completely inconsolable. well, since his mouth was open from crying, i decided i'd see if those top teeth ever finished coming in. guess what i found - two molars on the bottom! no wonder he's been grumpy! now he's had a shot of tylenol, finally ate the bottle (with me carrying him around while he ate it... which killed my back first thing this morning - i've already got a heating pad on it) - lordy i hope he starts feeling some better. so total kendal now has 7 teeth, almost 8. he has his central incisors on top and bottom, one of his lateral incisors on the top, the other is nearly out (i can see it but not feel it yet), and two first molars on the bottom. 7 down, 13 to go... uugh! is it time for a nap yet?
