rub a piece of ice over her gums. this is only temporary and it only helps with pain.

Chewing just relieves the pain a little, it doesnt force the tooth through, the gum doesnt recede around the tooth, the tooth grows up and through the gum.
Just keep pain killer in her, give her cold things to chew, and let it take its course.

Nothing works, just let them gum on anything that isn't hazardous. Baby oragel works wonders. But I avoid tylenol unless she's running a fever and even then I hardly use it. With this children's medicine scare, I'm not taking any chances. Even pediatricians are saying to avoid even tylenol unless the temp reaches above 101.

Baby origel works GREAT! any teething toys are alright, but make sure NOT to freeze them. It can cause frostbite on her little gums. Other then that just relax and chill out. excuse the pun. and the teeth will come. Baby Aspirin will also help with the fever that might come with it.. Good luck.
