some babies just dont want anything and theres nothing you can do but give them tylenol, or motrin. There are also teether tablets that you can get at CVS or Walgreens or Walmart they're all natural. Other then that i don't know what to tell you but pray and take deep breaths. I know it's hard. My son had colic for 3 months straight...cried all the time, and didn't sleep. If i can make it through that, you can make it through your baby teething. keep your chin up....you can do this, just keep your calm, comfort her and let her know you love her and that you're there for her. talking to her is good to...your voice is soothing to your kids.

They have motrin for babies that worked a lot better on my kids than tylenol did. Plus they just chewed on baby toys and teething biscuits. They wouldn't take those teethers either!

I always had a lot of different suggestions, from the frozen cloth in the fridge, to frozen banana slices, to icecubes made of koolaid, people always gave me some idea when my son was teething and he would scream and I would go "he's teething." I got the baby orajel or gave a small does of tylenol. A lot of babies (like my son) also won't eat when they are teething so the little mesh teething bags are an excellent idea as well.

giver her a clean carrot from the fridge. It tastes sweet and it is hard enough to where she cant chew on it safely. They also have some other teethers you can get that you put fresh fruit inside and they get the taste, but don't get choked. I do not know the name of it, but maybe someone else who reads this does. Good luck!

Try wrapping icecubes in a facecloth and wrapping a rubber band around it. Let her chew on it, it might help. You could also just get a facecloth wet and freeze it. What about just letting her chew on her regular baby toys. That's what both of mine did when they were teething. There are also teething biscuts too.

Wet and freeze a burp cloth or rag... that sometimes helps. My twins did not like anything cold, so I used teething tablets and liquid drops for teething (found at Walgreens). Hope that helps!!

You could massage your fingers over her gums. Sometimes a pacifier helps if she likes that. The frozen teether things..? If you haven't tried them. And my momma always told me to put a liiiittle bit of Jack on your finger and massage her gums. Tylenol helps with the pain and swelling. I hope this helps!

please do NOT put alcohol on your baby's gums! that person is retarded. her mom probably also used to think that smoking wasn't bad for you. anyway - try a frozen bagel. it will taste good, so she'll probably like it, and when frozen she will just gum it away without breaking off big chunks. of course, keep an eye on her just in case. they also sell a little feeder thing, that is a tough mesh bag you can put whole foods into for babies just starting solid foods, so they can chew it up with no risk of big chunks. you can try putting frozen fruit or vegetables in it, and they sell them at target or walmart or anlmost anywhere.
