teething??????????

Question

My son is four months old and teething. He is in lots of pain i was just woundering what some of you did to sooth the pain.....?????/

Answer 1

Take a washcloth and wet one corner and then stick the whole thing in the freezer. Then he can grip the non-frozen part and chew on the frozen part.

Massage his bottom gums with your finger. My (6 month old) daughter loves it when I press pretty hard and even kind of scratch at them.

Answer 2

My son is also four months and teething. My pediatrician told me to give him Tylenol. I also use natural teething tablets and drops, and teethers that you put in the refrigerator.

I also started taking a wash cloth, getting it wet and putting it in the freezer for about 10 minutes. My son loves to chew on it. I just gave him a bite biscuit today also and he loved it! Although it is very messy and you have to stay with him the whole time he has it.

Good Luck!

Answer 3

Wet frozen washcloths are amazing. The teething tablets are also wonderful. Sometimes a little tylenol helped out. Good luck.

Answer 4

I used Hylands teething tablets (you can get them at Walmart or pretty much anywhere) They are natural which makes me feel better. I also would roll up washrags, wet them, then freeze them. She loved to chew on them. You can also alternate motrin and tylenol every 3 hours. I never found orajel to help much since it pretty much wiped off as soon as she slobbered.

Answer 5

take a wash cloth and wet it ring it out and stick it in the freezer that always works :)
or you can try baby orajel my daughter hated the taste but she was so much happier once I applied it :)

good luck it's a hard time!

Answer 6

Hyland's Teething tablets are amazing, and you can give them to him quite often. They're all natural, as well.
