Silly teething ?

So mikayla is cutting her 1st tooth and it is apparently killing her...she has been SO cranky the past 2 days

she will not take teething rings or a paci, what else can I try?

Baby Orajel or try using a washcloth that is partially frozen (put some water on one half - freeze it then give it to her to bite on) - that's supposed to help break the tooth through. Chat Icon to her!

Re: Silly teething ?

Is she eating tablefood yet? (I can't remember, I'm sorry, mommy brainChat Icon ), if so, you can get one of those mesh bags that you can put fruit in. That might help. Also, a stale bagel always helped Ava.

Re: Silly teething ?

My friend suggested putting the paci in the freezer - she might feel the coldness and take it as relief. Also you can put ice cubes in those feeding net things. She told me that her ped, same as mine said orajel is bad for the babies gums, it eats away at them or something and told us not to use it. Good luck! I'm in teething nightmare as we speak. I bought humphreys but they don't seem to work for DD.Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

What about tylenol or the Fever All that will probably help with the pain
