Teething Child I Need to Sleep!

Question: My child is up every hour crying, this teething is exhausting.  I've tried everything and nothing is working my husband and I are getting no sleep! Help!

A: I could tell you every way I know to comfort your child, but it sounds like you have tried them already. Teething hurts! As your teeth cut through your gums it hurts. Getting no sleep is unhealthy.  You and your husband need self care.  Set up a sleep schedule one of you sleep 4 hours while the other is alert to take care of your child. Then switch. You will need to revert back to this emergency sleep plan for other illnesses or when the next child comes.  Hang in there this stage will only last a short while.
