Teething Time

My husband and I always joke that my daughter is way too ambitious for our family. She was trying to hold her head up the day after she was born, and could hold it up perfectly and all the time by the time she was 6 weeks old. She stands when we hold her upright, she sleeps for twelve hours a night now, and I swear she is trying to talk. These are all great things that we are thrilled about. However, there is one thing that she has started earlier than most babies and that is teething. I read that most babies begin teething between 4 and 6 months, but not Meredith....she is only 3 months and has already begun the process. She is drooling like mad...I changed her bib three times the other day....and she wants her pacifier continuously, something she never cared much for before. It is also making her VERY cranky. All I can do to calm her down is hold her in my arms and walk her around the house. I've got to start wearing my pedometer and track just how far I'm walking.....
