My daughter is haveing a really hard time sleeping at night - she is teething. She used to sleep though the night but not anymore. I give her tylenol and oragel to help her, but she still continues to wake up every 3-4 hrs. Any suggestions?

Ditto on those hylands teething tablets, they still work on my toddler who is cutting molars (ouch)! I've never had to give him tyenol because of those tablets. Here's a link to find a store that sells them near you http://www.hylands.com/sl2.php Also buy some of those teething toys that are filled with liquid, I'd keep those stocked in the fridge so they'd be nice and cool. If you have any lanisoh cream, you can use them on her face because it'll probably get chapped from all of the drool that teething brings. Good luck!

It could also be her 6 month growth spurt that is causing her to wake.
Try Hyland's Teething Tablets. I think they work far better than Oragel.

If your giving her meds, you will have to try some other form of soothing. A cold wash cloth to suck on, works wonders! You could even rub her gums. Don't use those gel freeze teether rings they make. I have had a few break open. Thankfully it wasn't while my daughter was using them!!!
