Slow down Sean!

Tag: SeanAndrewEmily @ 10:13 am

Sean had a rough night last night. He woke up at 2am and couldn’t get back to sleep. He was a little warm so I took his temperature and it was 100.2. He slept on and off for the rest of the night with me (since he wouldn’t go back in his crib) and at 6:15, woke up and had a temperature of 100.4. I called the doctor and they said to schedule an appt for this morning.

The doctor said he checked out fine, just a little congested. He then felt inside his mouth and lo and behold…a bump. Yup…he’s teething. The doctor said that it’s pretty rare to see it this young, but that it does happen. So, looks like he’s healthy, just jumping way ahead of himself in the developmental milestones. The doctor was funny; he looked and Sean and pointed his finger at him (as if scolding) and said “now listen here Sean, you’ve gotta slow down buddy. Standing at 8 weeks, now teething early…look, we don’t expect much out of you when you’re zero, but once you start all this, you’re dad is going to want you do stuff like take out the trash and stuff. You’ve got to slow down and enjoy your infancy buddy, it’s a great time!” LOL. It was really cute.
So, guess we’ll be buying teething rings and stuff now. My little boy is growing up way too fast! 🙁
