DD1 has got hand, foot and mouth disease.

It's hardly bothering her at all, apart from the fact the mouth ulcers are sore. Any bright ideas what will relieve them?

I put teething gel all over DS's dummy and let him suck on that - numbs the mouth - helped him feed

Thanks! We tried bonjela in the end. Not sure if it helped, but it gave her something to do!
