His Fingernails Now Have a Chalkboard

The boy's two teeth are now four, soon to be six. Unused, as he is, to having something hard against which to work those two bottom teeth of his, he is spending much of his time today rubbing his four teeth together. It produces the most horrifying sound. It gives me chills. I have actual shivering sensations going on over here just thinking about the sound. Lord, please let this period of experimentation with tooth texture be blessedly brief. Amen.

Oh, man, I remember that well. Isn't it just the worst? How can those sweet little babies make such an AWFUL sound? Sheesh.

Ugh. Horrible. And no, he's still not done doing it after day two. Maybe tomorrow.

OH
MY
GAWD

that is the WORST sound in the world

when my dd started doing that at about 10 months it took everything I had to not MAKE THE SOUND STOP.

(not in a scary "I abuse my kid" sort of way. fyi)

I got to where I just had to tell her "stop. just stop." she cried. but she stopped. and she made it to 5.5 as a result.

*shiver*

hate that sound
