Does anyone have any unique and useful teething solutions? My 5 month old DS is really suffering with it, I've bought him those teething rings you put in the fridge but he doesn't seem to like them, and I'm rubbing teething gel on his gums but the face he makes at the taste is a right picture Grin

DDs both loved the Razberry teether - much more successful than any other teether, and easy for them to hold themselves. Bickiepegs are good too but only for older ones I think as they are technically food and also little bits could break off.

Many babies like teething granules but that could be because they are made with sugar...!

Other than that my only suggestion is baby nurofen or anbesol - they work but we try to save them for the bad teething nights as they are quite powerful stuff.

Aw Thankyou for your suggestions! I'd forgotten about bickie pegs, my niece used those and seemed to help actually

Anbesol all the way

I second anbesol! Also found the teething granules good.

The best thing for DS was knawing on a cucumber! Must have gone through about 50!
