Popping into this post as we are also suffering with our DS.

We find Calpol works but feel we can't constantly be dosing him up with it plus it seems to stop working for him after a couple hours xx

Ibuprofen can work better than calpol, teething powders, bonjela, cold cucumber or carrot sticks to gnaw on helped. Or any cold teething toy. My little one had one horrific night with her two bottom teeth when they came through. Waking every half hour... I thought the night was never going to end! The days were bearable... just!

Yeah I’m using paracetomal also but also finding its just wearing off too quickly, and might give the powder ago! My little one is the same, used to only wake up once in the night but now I feel like she’s always awake if she’s not stirring she’s crying
