DS is 6 mths, been teething since 8 wks but last few days he has really gone to town. Waking from two to seven times a night, not feeding properly. Obviously all this is making him life miserable and it's horrible to watch. Using, gel, powder and calpol when needed.

Any advice/tips etc for 1st time mum.

No, just sympathy (and lots of it). I'm at this stage too. Mine quite likes chewing bickiepegs for ten minutes' respite.

I use a mixture of teething gel just before a feed to numb the gums. Thoose teething rings/dummies which you put in the fridge to get cold. If realy bad then i give dd2 capol as a last resort and so she can get some sleep.
