Teething in Babies

In my experience, babies who enjoy a routine from a very early age and have established healthy sleeping habits are rarely bothered by teething. Out of the 300 babies I have helped care for, only a handful have been bothered by teething in the night. In these cases it is usually when the molars come through and then only for a few nights. I have found that babies who wake in the night due to teething are more likely to have suffered from colic and have developed poor sleeping habits.
