My poor boy Levi

We've had a rough go with Levi lately...and I'm hoping it's attached to teething.  I'm hoping someone has some advice for us, or at least a similar story.  When he starts teething he get so congested in his throat...he gurgles.  It doesn't seem to bother him at all.  But it does seem to really irritate his gag reflex.  At times when he tries to swallow, it's almost like the saliva in the back of his throat gets in the way and he projectile vomits everywhere...it's so gross...and terrifying for Levi.  You know you love your child when you sit and let them vomit all over you and it doesn't seem to matter.  All I can do is cry watching him vomit and vomit.  It happens once or twice a day for a few days and then the teething symptoms pass and he's okay again.  This has repeated itself a few times already...and he still only 2 teeth!  I feel so bad for my little man!!  I'm hoping it passes soon!  Thankfully he has a lot of chubby reserves to get him through:)

Hello Viv, Brad, Benjamin and Levi,
We miss you guys so much, and some days we feel so far away! I mean, we are so far away, but some days you feel it more than others. We have had a few days like that lately.
Give Levi a huge hug from his Auntie Jenny, Uncle Jason and cousin Josh. We are missing so many fun and important things in his and Ben's lives. Its a high price and we love them so much. thanks for the oics in the care package, (and the other stuff too), the photos are on the fridge, so I see them often!
I sure hope this teething issue goes away and stays away.
Love Uncle Jason
ps. Hows my bro doing lately?
