Teething tips

Hello!

My little boy is nearly 6 months and has already been through so much! Last month he had an operation and since then I panic whenever he really cries.

Today he has cried almost constantly and the only thing we can put it down to is possible teething because of his super red cheeks and constant drooling and chewing

We've tried teething gel and granules, calpol and nothing is working.

Any tips on how to cope or recommendations for pain relief?

Chamomile tea works wonders don’t leave the tea bag in for so long so it’s not so strong but it should help him relax worked for my son or just for teething better sleep too

The only things that will be effective on teething pain is anbusol and nurofen, everything else is sugar/distraction.

Can you see anything if you have a look? Any white bulges under the gum?

Anbesol on a kids toothbrush for him to chew.
