Teething & Sleep

****TTM&B SLEEP TIP****
​
We all know that #teething #babies can sometimes be very cranky, and with good reason I'd say!! 
But this doesn't mean that your little moon bug needs to be awake for hours during the night
or brought into bed with you for comfort.
Once little ones have the skills they need to #sleep through the night independently, many
just sleep on through the discomfort or at the very most need a little pain reliever*,
a little snuggle and then they are back to dream land.

So don't change your expectations just because you suspect your little one might be teething.
He will likley be teething for about 2 years; that's a lot of sleepless nights that don't have to be. 
He may need a little extra comfort, a few more snuggles but don't confuse him by
changing his routines, or your expectations; because he may just deside that he likes things
better this new way and you have a whole new set of sleep habbit to break.  

Wondering how to tell the difference between a teething baby and a sick baby???
