Finally -- an answer to the fussiness! He's had a cold for a week and a half now, but I could not for the life of me believe that that was why he was so irritated. I mean ... he's had a cold since October (not the same one, of course, but one after the other)! Why is it bothering him so much now? So, I felt around, and sure enough. There's a little tooth under those bottom gums. I had Adam check, too, to make sure I wasn't imagining it.
It hasn't broken through yet, but that little bitty thing is causing a world of trouble in our house. He refuses to eat solids, wakes up all through the night, fusses when I put him down, fusses when I pick him up, fusses when I change his diaper. Who knew such a teeny tiny tooth could be the source of so much pain? Poor thing.
I'll post a pic when it breaks through.
