Oragel works wonders. There is also something you can buy at Wal-mart (in the baby section) called Teething Tablets. They're tiny disolvable tablets an they are 100% natural. They worked very well for my daughter. Also, frozen french fries, they'll feel good on her teeth!

Rub the babies gums with a cold towel. Put the towel around your finger and the baby may want to suck on your finger but that's alright, just let the baby do so. Just do that ever so often and the baby will be alright, if not, try to go to Walmart and buy some teething tablets, the should cost about $5.00.

how old is this baby?? are you sure its teething??
if teething, try baby advil/motrin or baby tylenol drops. The advil/motrin works better. Also freeze a damp wash cloth. or those teethers. There are also homeopathic teething tablets that work well too! You can rub the gums to help the teeth break through easier (my baby will not let me do this).
Lots of love and cuddles too! It'll pass!

That depends on how old she is. But something that worked on my kid (and he loved them cause they tasted like candy) is Humphreys teething tablets (homeopathic medicine)-they work like a charm and baby loves them. They just kinda dissolve on the tongue but theyre very tiny. Hope theres a target near you cause thats the only place I could find that sold them, and even then sometimes you have to ask the pharmacist to order some for you.
But trust me, your baby will thank you. (Also give her baby advil,or baby motrin thats EXCELLENT for teething infants.) And the regular teething toys of course, but teething is painful and advil and humphreys are your best bet. also try a frozen bagel for her to chew on.
P.S. Oragel BURNS my baby and other kids I've babysat in the past that used it-they HATED IT. They cried everytime it was applied b/c it burns, after awhile the burning sensation wears off, but why hurt your baby when she is already hurting?

I used to put teething rings in the freezer or fridge and they love the cool sensation when they chew on it.
Also baby-oragel or ambesol works also.

There are plenty of medicines you can use just call a grocery store pharmicist and they can help. Or if no med, than a ice cold wash cloth to chew on ,massage gums w/fingers.And lots of love

Infants tylenol, baby gels are useless because the saliva washes it away. Cold teethers not frozen.

Give her a cold wet washcloth to suck on. if she can tolerate it, put it in a plastic bag and put it in the freezer for a little bit to get really cold. The coldness will help numb the pain
