Mine didn't like teeting rings either. Do you have teething rusks over there mine didn't mind those. They are like really hard dry bread sticks.

I have not heard of teething tablets sorry.

teething that is

Wait till you get to the talking stage..so cool!!

We spend the first few years tryint to get them to talk then for the rest of our lives we wonder why!

The teething will pass pretty quick.

No I have not heard of rusks but that makes me want to go and try dry break sticks.lol

I know I wonder that with my 5 yr old nephew.Yeah I hope that it passes quick or I learn the trick of making her happier soon.

I just remembered another thing that I used to use any time that Em was cranky. There was an herb store next door to my office and the lady sold me this tiny bottle of liquid called Lobelia. Rub a few drops on the back of her neck and it would calm her right down. It was the most amazing stuff. I bought the first bottle when she was 3 months old and may have bought another somewhere along the way but it that bottle or 2 lasted through the toddler years.

She's 12 now. Almost a teenager. Maybe I should get some more.

Good luck, hun. Hope she's doing better today!

not many single dads out there mate

im a single parent of 3, blinkin hard work in it lol, but mines 11,10 and 7 so probally not as hard work as a baby so nice one

the only thing with bonjela is, i like the taste of it,

so its like one for the baby and 3 for me

then end up over dosing my self on the stuff

Yes they work. With my son I used tylenol not a lot but it helped. He has his molars coming in now.

They make this stuff called Numz it and it comes in Cherry flavor , just put a little on your finger tip (wash hands first) and rub it onto the little ones gums.
It is a temp fix, teething rings are also available which you pop into the freezer and let them gum on those as well.


Chaz

a friend of mine uses homeopathic remedies for her little one ..... will mail you the details

Pediolite popsicles, my friend. Thier cold so it helps the gums, they taste good and gets the girl fuilds that are good for her. Try some of those. Good luck. Just remember this too shall pass....

awwwww, i bet she is tooooooo cute with all that drool....awww

I dont know about with the drool, but in all the pics I have seen, she is a beautiful baby!! I am sure she is georgous with the drool as well!!

Hope all is well for you Anjel!!! Now I am off to bed!!

i didnt give my son meds for teething really, i'd go with the pedialyte pop cycles.... put it in her bottle, dont let her suck on the plastic, and just give her half. This is better during the day, not for if you are trying to put her asleep....

If you want her to sleep, or at night, you give her a warm bottle, and then, a cold teething ring (for my son, the bottle worked) or pacifier, and rub her back as she lay on your chest. Listening to something as simple as your heart beat will sooth her more than meds...

hey casie! good night!

I used to freeze a wet clean washcloth in the freezer and let my son chew on that. He loved it.
Also frozen bananas are great to gum :)

oh yeh, forgot about the frozen bananas!



that most def works too!

Claayer....too much information!!!!!

Oh yes, almost forgot about the bananas:

Bananas can act as mood enhancers or mild sedatives: Bananas contain tryptophan (although it’s not one of the major sources, a medium still contains about 10.6 mg of tryptophan). Tryptophan is one of the 20 amino acids which are building blocks of proteins. Tryptophan helps the body to produce serotonin - which has a calming effect on the brain (creates a stable mood) and acts as a mild sedative.

Maybe that's why I've always heard them used a starter foods for young children!
