    Stanley is in the middle of teething (I think).

    I keep finding his little teeth and blood on his toys.

    But what I have noticed is that his breath really smells - is this part of teething?

    Thanks

    Usually yes, my OH could smell the change in Rorys.

    Xena's teething and neither I nor my apparently "sensitive"-nosed OH have noticed an odour.

    A bit like rotting fish I think. He has a habit of yawning right in your face and it stinks, but it's just been this past week or so when he's been teething

    I actually posted about Quinn's breath on here it was so bad when she was teething. We went to the vet to be sure, and it was bad breath from teething, but also her anal glands were slightly too full so she was licking at them, adding to the breath problem!

    Yup, my two were pretty smelly when teething. I found it to be an strong smell of iron.

    I keep finding little teeth everywhere, really cute!

    I wanted to put a treat under his pillow like the tooth fairy had been but OH said that was too far.. He's probably right. :wasntme:
