I would try some Hyland's Teething Tablets. You may have to ask for them at the pharmacy. They are homeopathic and dissolve almost instantly.

Maybe its allergies or an earache? Does she talk yet, can she tell you what hurts? Good luck, it's so hard when they're sick!

Hi L.,
So sorry to hear about your little one. My son went through a stage when he was drooling like crazy! I had to change his shirts multiple times a day.
After many doctors visits we found out he had horrible allergies. His sinuses were inflamed and he had fluid in his head. I would check as many resources as possible (molars,allergies, etc.) My sons allergies eventually affected his speech as well.
Best wishes,
K.

Yes - 2 year molars can be painful. You should be able to look back there and see or feel if there is redness, swelling or even little white bumps where they are coming in. Some Tylenol or Motrin at bedtime may help ease the pain. See if she can point to a place that is hurting her. She may point to her ear or general face area, because she may not be able to identify the origination of the pain, but it all hurts. If not, it would be worth a call to the doctor. Hang in there!

Hi L.! She could definitely be victim of the dreaded 2-year old molars! Give that little pumpkin some Motrin and send her off to sleep tonight. Hopefully, that will help. When they lay down, the pressure on their gums tends to kick in. When she's upright, it's not as bad. Isn't teething horribl?! Maybe even give her a frozen washcloth, frozen fruit, popsicles or a frozen teething ring during the day if she gets cranky. Good luck!

Hello L....Have you ever heard of night terrors?? I have 5 kids, 13yrs.-4mos., and sometimes those start to kick in around 2. Try changing the bed routine...bath, book, soft lighting, soft music. Sometimes that helps!!! If it continues, speek with your Dr. Night terrors can get
really bad really quick!! Good Luck,jess
