Yes, sleep deprivation is one of the by products of most parents raising an infant from about 6 months through to 36 months.
It is a very natural process, especially during the baby teething stages.
Signs Your Baby Is Teething 
- Inflamed gums - Generally the new teeth will be visible beneath the gums prior to eruption.
- Cranky - often your child will become very difficult to handle. Mom and Dad may display the same behavior
.- Biting - Everything in sight will go into your child's mouth i.e. your dog's rubber toys, dog bones, your shoes and socks etc.
- Drooling - a never ending flow of saliva, almost beyond belief.
Helpful Hints to Reduce Stress for your Teething Baby
To reduce the stress of your baby during the teething process try giving your precious baby some cool things such as:
- Cold spoons
- Frozen juices
- Cool, soft washcloth

- Frozen plastic rings
