teething help!

my 9 month old ds seems to be teething at the moment - red cheeks/dribbly/grumpy etc but the worst thing is the projectile vomiting after every bottle since sat - he's not "ill" i.e no temperature or anything so I haven't been to the GP.

The thing is, what do I feed him last thing at night? he's starving when he gets home from nursery - they have their tea at 3.30. Usually I give him weetabix and a big bottle of milk which settles him for the night. What can I give him that doesn't involve milk? He doesn't seem to want to eat much at the moment but is very hungry??
thanks

Why not a plain digestive biscuit? or give him some more tea later in the evening, mashed potato or something. Sorry I can't be more helpful but thought i'd bump your thread a little for you.

how about youghurt? i know its milk, but its lovely and cooling in their mouth and on their gums?

Hi - well I gave him a rusk mashed with warm water instead of milk and he's gone to sleep - just hope he doesn't wake up hungry in the night! I did try mashed potato yesterday but he just didn't want it. I think I'll stick with the rusk / biscuit before bed and perhaps yogurt in the morning.
Thanks for the suggestions x
