We have tried both, neither seems to work for us all that well. As a matter of fact, DD seems to get more wound up on the Motrin Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

DD does that anyway during nap time, sometimes I think she's going to pull out the two strands of hair she already has just to keep herself awake ...Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Motrin or Tylenol to help them sleep with teething pain?

Honestly, none have worked for me!!! My DD has 7 teeth at 8 months, nuts...and i am not kidding when i say the last few months have been horrible..she has slept through the night maybe 4 times...what has just started to work for me are hylands teething pellets...and let me tell you, DD had 4 teeth on top come in all at once...these things have her sleeping more peacefully etc....Childrens benadryl, just a dab to the gums can sometimes help them get a little sleep if it is that horrible...
My DD is up every night for hours on end sometimes...it sucks...
I am actually using a Sleep Trainer out of Manhattan to give me a hand because it is so brutal i have maybe gotten a total of 7 hours sleep in 3 days...i tried CIO, well, she screamed all night for days and would go back to sleep after being beat for say, maybe an hour..ugh...
Hang in there and I would pick up Hylands from CVS...they are working better than anything for me....pop them in the bottle if she wont take them by mouth....

Re: Motrin or Tylenol to help them sleep with teething pain?

Tylenol always worked for us.

Motrin can upset a baby's tummy...so just be aware of that

When my DS was teething I would also use Gentle Naturals... I think that's the name. It has Pooh & Eeyore on the bottle. Anyway, it is an all natural teething liquid, and it worked pretty well. You can get it at Target or CVS.
