WWYD-teething related..

Chase is going to be 11 weeks old tomorrow. As of now, he's only had tylenol once and that was the day after his shots because he had a fever and was really cranky.
He's teething really badly right now. Bubbles on the gums, gnawing on his hands, etc. I've been using teething tablets with him and they've worked great, but I only have used them at night or for nap time when he's in too much pain to sleep.
Now today, he's miserable. I know it's his gums because when I rub them, he starts to coo and gurgle and smile. The teething tablets did nothing for him today. I'm afraid that he's too young to really get tylenol for teething. I can see for a fever, but I just feel like for teething, he's still so young.
Am I just being ridiculous? Should I just give him the tylenol so he can be comfortable, or should I spend the rest of the day rubbing his gums? Just kidding.
I don't know why I am so uptight about giving him tylenol, I sure wasn't with Ava

If your ped has ok'd it..I'd give tylenol.

I know how awful teething is so many hugs!

Kristina started teething at 2 mos, and I just couldn't stand to see her in the pain, so on the really bad days, I would give her the Hyland's coupled with the Tylenol.... That's me tho.

I would give the Tylenol.
