Used Ashtons with DS1 but that was 7 years ago!

Bought some today for DS2 - 9months and swear he's been "teething" since he was 5 months old love him!

Lately, breath smells, showing "colic" symptons and crabby! Blocked nose, dripping for Wales and runny poo - teeth near i'm guessing - you can see them perfectly though his gums!!!

Given a dose tonight but obviously not expecting any difference yet as it's the fist time but was just just wondering what's your advise - as in which ones worked for you etc -

I used either boots or nelsons homeopathic ones. Definitely helped, but think you have to give them regularly.

I think they help but only in a sort of distracting way...which is better than in no way at all...

Dunno but DS really liked the homeopathic ones when he was teething and went off them later - I think they have sugar in them!
