One popped through and one coming. Any other tips or just chuck brandy calpol down her neck?

Sleep is pretty shite most of the time anyway, so hasn't made a discernible difference. But randomly bursting into very sad tears :(

i use the teething powder and it does seem to calm dd (6mths tomorrow) she has just cut her first two teeth, the bottom front two.

also gave calpol to help with sleep......

and we have an amber necklace, i used one wiht my boys, not sure if it helped but they look very cute Grin Hmm

we use tons less calpol if ds2 has an amber necklace on... and he got an infection of one sort or another (e.g. ear infection, tonsilitus) immediately after every tooth when he didn't wear one. but he's been a grumpy boy AGAIN recently, molars coming now, so bunged a second necklace on him and it seems to have helped!

we found dentinox worked better than bonjela as there is no limit to how often you can use it!
we also put dummy in the fridge and gave loads of cold chewy snacks, is your little one is at the weening stage? also found ice chips helped to sooth gums,
it is awful though isn't it, we have got twins one never complained at all we would just suddenly otice a new toth the other complained all the way throught!!
