how do i help my 6month old son whos teething with a bad tummy?

Question

im using ambosol for gums,parsons powders and diaorolite!help x

Answer 1

Baby orajel and ambosol are fine for the gums. Get teething rings that you can put in the fridge to help with the gum soreness. My son is starting to teeth and he loves his teething ring. Get on a of the ones that have bubbles in a circle DO NOT FREEZE. You should use Mylicon drops for the tummy ache, always makes my son feel better. Hope this helps, good luck. A dose of baby tylenol couldn't hurt either

Answer 2

my daughter is also teething at the moment. it really does affect them, poor things. Ive been using teething powder, try ashton and parsons powder. most good pharmacies sell it. it stops upset tummies and nappy rash. its great. Ashton & Parsons Infants Powders are an alternative to paracetamol-based preparations for babies for easing the symptoms associated with teething. I first discovered these powders through recommendation by no less than three separate parents, all of whom had used them with great success with their own children. I am always keen to find ‘alternative’ ways of treating ailments and when I read the packet description - “a herbal product traditionally.

Answer 3

Try baby bonjela for gums, something he can bite down on. my babes hated cold things but loved bicciepegs and stuff like that. Don't know what parsons powders are. I assume diaorilite is for diaorrhea- if so have you been to the docs? If it's for constipation here is my fool proof best answer twice advice-it never fails (apparently)
Dissolve 2 tsps brown sugar in warm water (small bottle) rub tum low down under tummy button on gentle round motion when they've drunk it. Usually gets things moving! Good luck x

Answer 4

Have you tried perhaps a chew toy of some kind... i know when my daughter was teething... it helped her.

But nothing will relieve the pain completely until the tooth/teeth actually pierce the gum. Ambesol is probably best, at least relieve the pain for a little while.
Also, Warm milk can help relieve some tumming aches and lots of soft tummy rubbing.
Good luck !!!

Answer 5

orajel does work at times depends where he teething. You can put the tylenol on the gums where he is teething does to. Some babies don't want to have bottle when they teething because it hurts. Motrin does good has well. My youngest wouldn't take a pacifier but when he was teething he took a pacifer that kind with teething. It help him out a little. Once he teething was done he didn't want that pacifier anymore. None of my two boys didn't like the teething ring too. Do doing good.

Answer 6

I've been very lucky and had hardly any trouble with my little girl but anbesol and calpol did the trick especially if accompanied with a bickiepeg and warm bath! good luck i know how frustrating it can be

Answer 7

i feel for you, i remember our kids... explosive baby gro's.. yeuckky or what?

and as not a lots changed in 26 years...

all we ever did was keep lots of different stuff in the freezer...so they could chew and dribble... all you can really do is keep em hydrated...and when youve both been awake for 3 days, i suggest half a valium... sprog will sleep... and mum wil welcome the chance to sleep...

good luck...

oh, and the kids are now aged 27 to 12...

Answer 8

have u tried medised its a pain reliever with paracetomol, plus it helps get the baby to sleep i use it on my 6month old daughter and it works a treat.

Answer 9

i'm in the same situation with my daughter just now. i've been using cold cloths and teething rings, teething gel and been giving her medised at night to help her sleep. you can use medised alongside baby neurofen if he is really sore.

Answer 10

Paracetamol every 6 hours is the best.
