Teething Troubles

I swear this child is the slowest teether I have ever seen. At his 4 month appointment the doctor looked in there and felt around and said little tooth buds were starting to poke up. He saw them, I saw them, Jonathan saw them, my family saw them, we ALL saw them. He is now 8 months old and we still see them right below the surface but they refuse to break. Today was a hard teething day for little man. He was just a drooling, and a chewing, and a fussing. I hope they come up soon. I don't think I can take four more months of this.
