Need Help With Teething?
This is just something they have to go through. Maya was a terrible teether. She still is. Her 2 year molars are coming in now and she will come in our room at 3am crying saying "my teeth mommy". It breaks my heart.





Also, Tylenol is a very powerful drug to a 6 month old. It isn't like us popping a couple of Tylenol. If it isn't killing the pain, then talk to your doctor to make sure you are giving enough or switch to Motrin which may be better since it is an antiinflammatory.
Reply:it mite help if u put i little bit of rum or which ever u choose on the bottem gums
Reply:I asked the same question last night about my two and a half month old...sounds like you have tried everything...but did you try just rubbing his gums?...good luck to you!!
Reply:My son liked ice pops (unopened).
Reply:MMMM, well they have these little food net chewer things at Babies r us. You put ice, veggies, and fruit in them and it prevents the seeds and skins from coming off. You could try one of those and put frozen grapes in it.

Reply:I found that children's Motrin work better on teething for my babies. That and my massage their gums with my finger
Reply:you can rub the panadol or nurofen on the child's gums to relieve the pain also you can burn some lavender oil in the child's room this helps i did it with my son also give a carrot to break the skin plus he has something to chew on or a rusks stick your choice good luck
Reply:I also gave my son blueberry waffles to chew on. It tastes good and it soothes the gums and it gets soft. My son hated teething rings and baby oragel. The teething tablets worked well on him too but you already said they weren't working. I hope this helps. best wishes.
Reply:Babies like to chew on something firm and cold when they are teething. Have you tried the teethers that you can refrigerate? Try a combo of the cold teethers, tylenol and orajel. Be sure not to go over the recommended amounts for each medication daily. Good luck and hang in there! : )
Reply:I use Gentle Naturals homeopathic teething drops they work wonders and I have gone through 2 bottles since he was born you can get then at target or walgreens.I hope that they work for you
Reply:Try giving the baby tiny, tiny slivers of ice. The ice is so tiny that it melts almost as soon as it hits the gums, but babies love it.


Of course, you have to make sure that it's small and thin.
Reply:Your little one sounds similar to my son, who is now 13 months old. He started his teething at 5 1/2 mos and was just miserable through it all. Some little ones take it harder then others. The only thing that comforted my son was tylenol prior to bedtime and his pacifier. He didnt want to have anything to do with teethers and such which made it hard. We even had a hard time putting our finger in his mouth to massage his gums for him. One thing that he did and still enjoys as his molars are coming in is chewing on a toothbrush. Crazy I know! We now know a battery operated toothbrush for him that has a detachable head that is a massager and it's been great for him as his molars are coming in.





I know that this is a very difficult time for you and your little one. Just remain patient. Offer lots of loves and hugs and cuddles. A break will come and you will forget all about this time..until the next time:-) Good Luck and hang in there.
