Once again, my lovelies, it’s Haiku Friday!
ANOTHER MOLAR THIS WEEK. It has been hell, to say the least.
It peeked through on Tuesday, and has been hurting him all week.
Peer in there, on the lower, left side.
Hence, these Haiku.
Molar makes its way
Gouging, grinding, tearing gum
Poor lil’ man in pain.
Trying hard to help
Nothing I do makes it end
Ice cream is like gold.
He tries hard to sleep
His mouth objects to slumber
No solace tonight.
Please sleep just a bit?
Oh no, he’s screaming again.
Padded room awaits me.

That’s impressive. And impressive you got a good picture of it.
Hopefully he’s not itching and hurting enough to want to bite you. Or has he already?

Teeth suck! They hurt coming in, they hurt when they’re already in your mouth, they hurt going out!
janet
teething. UGH.
Gry
DUDE, we’ve just gone through the longest 3 months of my (our?!) life. 4 molars have been produced. I feel your pain (or rather, your dear child’s pain!)
Veronica
Poor little man. Teeth are no fun.
If I had my way, teeth would all come through in one big burst. You would have 1 horrific night and then it would be done.
Toni
I had forgotten how bad it sucks to be little! Teething, gas, everything is so hard. Here’s hoping Braden feels better today!
kara

Poor guy. My baby just got her first two last week. Teething just sucks.

Yay for padded rooms. I hope you both get some sleep soon. I don’t envy you the molars!

let him gnaw on cold carrots….
or some Bourbon on the jaw….

And if you’re against bourbon for him, how about some for you?
Great photo you got there, and your lovely series of haiku tells the story brilliantly.

No matter the age or ailment, ice cream is always gold! Hope the pain eases up for him soon!

Adam is getting his molars too. We’re just rubbing whiskey on his gums every hour or so. What? People don’t do that any more? Geesh…political correctness. Alright I’ll switch to Sambuca.
Blue Momma
Ahhh. Poor baby. I’ve got braces right now so I’m feeling the tooth pain!
Here’s to it passing quickly.
Jennifer aka Binky Bitch
Poor boy! Poor mama! Teething, it just never seems to end.

i hate molars! my Logan has two molars coming in right now, and it’s reeking havoc with the whole family’s sleep!

I’m sharing your pain. Our son just finished his molars and is now cutting his eye teeth (he actually is running a high fever) and we’re all miserable.
I hope he cuts them fast and soon!

Great haiku. Man that is a tough time. I hope he feels better soon.
