anbesol ....

[nappyaddict]

how the blardy hell are you supposed to apply it without getting your fingers mutilated?

[nappyaddict]

bump!!ds hasn't stopped crying for the last hour i need ideas.

[dirtymonkey]

Dip a cotton bud in the anbesol and use that, not sure if it'll work but may be worth a try.

[nappyaddict]

oooh good idea.

[nappyaddict]

how long is it meant to take to work?

[dirtymonkey]

I think our bottle says one application should bring instant relief.
Can you give ds calpol too? Just incase it isn't just his gums that are sore, especially if he has been crying for so long.
I know dd also gets earache and a mild fever when teething.

[nappyaddict]

hes had full dose of calpol and nurofen and now anbesol and still hasn't stopped crying.

[nappyaddict]

help please can't take any more crying. my ears are numb

Is this for a mouth ulcer? My DD was prescribed an ointment (sorry, can't remember the name) from the Dr which tastes a hell of a lot better than Anbesol. Poor you and your DS.

[nappyaddict]

no i think he's teething.

[MamaFormerlyKnownAsGlam]

ah, I see. I found a homeopathic remedy really helped when DD was teething(again, can't remember the name, sorry. That's what happens when you have an 8 year old and an 11 week old) I hope you find a solution soon.

I got it in Boots though.
