Teething?

Cooper has been very cranky for the last few days.  He has been showing many signs of teething.  Drooling, frequent crying/ fussiness, decreased interest in eating solids and not able to sleep (he has been waking every 2-3 hours and has been unconsolable).

We had tried many things to make him feel better (tylenol, orajel, Sophie the Giraffe and rubbing our fingers over his gums).  Nothing seemed to help.  So we got a wash cloth wet for him to chew on.  He loved it and calmed down immediately.  Now if only he would get back to sleeping through the night and not waking up every 2-3 hours.  Mommy and Daddy are very tired.
