Edmund has started grinding his teeth. Today is the first day that I have noticed it and it is like fingernails on a chalkboard. Anyone know of any ways to stop him from doing it.

I'm sorry I wont be much help but I know what you are going through. M did it for the longest time and we would try and switch her attention to a snack or her milk and eventually she just kind of stopped doing it.

My stepson did it too and then eventually grew out of it.

The joys of kids when they figure that out. Eventually they get over it!!

Update: Apparently the noise I'm hearing him make isn't from grinding his teeth. Well not all the time. He has figured out how to make the noise even when his mouth is wide open and not grinding his teeth. But it sounds like a creaky window shutter or fingernails on a chalkboard.

My dd did that right after she got new teeth. I think it felt wierd that there was something new in her mouth. It stops in a coup,e days hopefully.
