Rachel is definitely getting teeth, we can see them! They're two adorable white buds with ridges on top that have just made it past her bottom gum line. I can tell because last night, when she grabbed for my finger and began biting it, it hurt. A lot. "Ouch!" I yelled, and yanked my finger out. She thought that was the funniest thing imaginable.
"This is when a lot of women stop breast-feeding," Drew said. Which is not an issue with me -- Rachel has been on formula exclusively since about 6 weeks -- but I am really looking forward to the day when we can consolidate feedings and she won't wake up at 5:30 a.m., hungry.
Of course, there are disadvantages to solids, too. To put it bluntly, her poops stink. I can already tell that I'll miss the days of harmless, green, non-smelly formula-based poops.
Guess this is a sign my baby is growing up.
