Yes, to those of you who wondered if Livia was just teething. . . I think she was. A month after her crying during naps and at night, tugging at her ears, and having a runny nose. . . I see a 2 year molar.
So there! An explanation! It's earlier than my boy's got their 2 year molars, but she has gotten most of her teeth earlier. There were lots of tricky clues, but YES, mothers all over seem to know that tricky clues can often be simply answered, "teeth." Thank you to all my wise friends.
And now we're in for round two. Apparently all that to do was just for the FIRST molar. And here we go again, armed with Tylenol, and other teething tricks.
One (frustrating, exhausting) mystery solved. Now. . . if someone could help me understand why my potty trained one year old has had a run of accidents (ha ha). THREE pairs of wet pants and unders in 30 minutes? Come on, that's just ridiculous. (Especially since I was right there with her!) SOMETHING is going on.
And with those words, the exact same words I used before the 2 year molar, I'll leave you. I have confidence that I'll understand this, too, in time. If not, I'll stop caring because there will be other, greater, more pressing mysteries. (I really do enjoy moving beyond teething and toilet training and thinking a bit deeper!)
