Eight Molars

Many of you know that poor Connor has been teething for the past four months (yes, that was four months). The poor kid will run a (high) fever (102+) for a week, his gums will get swollen, but the darn molars wouldn't break through. The teeth would go back down, and then we'd be at it again 4-6 weeks later. After the latest bout (about a week ago), I was determined to take him to the dentist the next time it happened and have him break the skin over the teeth for the poor guy. Well, low and behold, Dennis was tickling him today and looked in his mouth, and he had 8 (yes, 8) molars that had popped through (two on the top and two on the bottom on each side). No wonder the kid's been so miserable!!! I'm so glad they've at least broken the skin!
