It’s here: Tooth #4
There is no denying that Tooth #4 is. Now it is seen with the other three front teeth poking out of the gums giving a clear future of Ezra looking like a beaver for a short time.
Now that the teething of Tooth #4 is complete and the tooth exists, the tension from the teething of Tooth #4 has faded, and Ezra seems to not be bothered by very intense teething during sleep or before sleeping.
Unfortunately, as soon as one cause of sleeplessness goes away another another comes to be. This time another daycare cough kept Ezra awake last night. The cough has been developing since Wednesday. Everything about Ezra’s health is good except for a cough that woke him up last night making everyone’s sleep shorter than wanted.
Tooth #4 is here and the daycare cough will fade, too, so maybe some time during the next week we will all sleep during the entire night for more than one night. I do believe, however, more teeth are soon on the way for he is beginning to try to shove objects further into the mouth to chew upon the deeper regions of the gums, so it could come to pass that we will not be sleeping the entire night for a few years.
