The doctor told to be careful when using the baby orajel because is might affect his gag reflex. Has anyone heard this? Also, other than baby tylenol, is there any other suggestions to ease his pain?

Teething Tablets. Its a natural, homepathic remedy that was suggested by my pediatrician! They work and is so much better than giving them medicine all the time. I usually give her the recommended dose of 3 tablets and a teething ring. If shes still acting fussy and I know shes not hungry I will give her the Tylenol. It drastically cut how much Tylenol I was giving her though. They are usually on the baby aisle next to the Orajel. I know Target does not carry them but Walgreens and Publix both do.

Infant Orajel is okay, but you should use it as little as possible. I only used it a few times as a last resort with my 3 children and they never gagged. Baby Tylenol or Baby Advil (ibuprofen) works best. You can try putting teething rings in the fridge. Babies like the cold. Just make sure to wash them often. Good luck!

take a teething ring and put it in the freezer for a couple hours. let her chew on that for a while. do not use oragel, it's not good for babies.
