The Official TFK Father's Issues Thread. I don't know how they do it

It was probably to keep the foxes away from you.

The best thing to do Juno is leave it be, drink a few tonight while watching a repeat of the game and under no circumstances repeatedly tell the story to freinds and relatives over the course of her life.

Excellent advice. First bit was easy.

A slightly above average quip which is no way deserving of a ā€œnice postā€ award. Iā€™m seething at seeing that

Not one of @Rockoā€™s best efforts

Feel free to use my designated thread to complain about incorrectly awarded post ratings.

Herself is out for grub with the girls and Iā€™ve been left here with the little one (4mts)whoā€™s humpy enough at the mo due too teething.

Lads Iā€™ve two questions,what do ye find best for teething? (Were using teetha I think itā€™s called!)and what age did ye start given solids to yers?(she Brest fed for 3mths)

Thanks in advance

Teetha is fine but if you can get calgel from the North or UK its a much better job.

Our lad was weaned onto food from 4-5 months but was bottle fed. His cousin who was breast fed who was born a week earlier was on solids from 6 odd months I think.

Our lad has 4 top teeth and 1 bottom tooth cutting through at the one time at the moment. And the @glasagusban fella would have you believe itā€™s a happy peaceful processā€¦

In the same situation here @faldo. Little girl is 4 months and teething. Wish the fucking teeth woukd come up. I was told rub a bit of calpol on the gums and this soothes them.

Haha far from it,my girls not too bad yet but its cuntish when you canā€™t do anything for themā€¦

Our one has about 12 teeth now and in fairness to her there wasnā€™t a bother on her for it. Got four in one night and she didnā€™t even wake. Only sign sheā€™s teething is she gets a sore arse.

Ye have it fuckin easy. Enjoy it. My two girls are 13 and nine and the only time the house isnt like a warzone is when theyre in bed. Came home one day and the misses was fighting with the eldest. The eldest was fighting with the youngest and the youngest was fighting with the misses. Jacket straight back on. By the time I came home they were still fucking at it. Enjoy the teething. Youll fucking yearn for it in a few years

Sounds like a household with a lack of a dominant male figure

Teetha is ok, supposed to stop the buildup of saliva which means the gums wonā€™t swell as much. I found that the problem with calgel is that my lad would swallow it as soon as you put it on his gums. Calpol and neurofen are the only solution I think.

Calpol is best for teething. Nurofen lasts a bit longer but is a bit harsher on the stomach. Teetha granules can be useful for the feel of the granules but the liquid is just fancy water as is a homeopathic remedy. Calgel is the same thing as bonjela. I wouldnā€™t use too much of this but it has its place if pain is severe. Calpol/nurofen the first call though if theyā€™re in pain. If you had a sore wisdom tooth you wouldnā€™t go looking to suck a few granules. Obviously, thereā€™s often no pain, and you just leave them alone then.

No rush for weaning on to food. Definitely no earlier than 4 months if bottle fed and 6 months if breastfeeding. Adequate nutrition in milk.

You will yeah. The missus will tell you to pipe down and youā€™ll get back in your box. And then probably post here about how you schooled your man. Ask thetippingking about it. He had some lad chasing one of his recently enough.

Teetha is homeopathic bud so doesnā€™t have any such effects (or any effect at all in fact). I reckon the granules just feel nice against the babiesā€™ slightly tender gums
