my usually wonderful sleeper evangeline is now teething and has a cold!! grr!! so not only does she not go down to sleep at night till about 10:30/11pm, but she's not sleeping much during the day...basically just cries. alot. hm.

any suggestions? i've tried teething rings, but she's only 5 months old, so she can only hold on to very small ones and they don't stay cold for long, and i've tried bonjella teething gel, works for about 2 seconds then she spits the dummy again - literally AND figuratively!! haha. its only one tooth, its broken through but not all the way in yet...any suggestions?

" Have you tried baby tylenol? I used it at naps and bedtime. Just ask the baby's doctor how much.

You could also try one of those safety feeders with some frozen fruit in it. "
