Best tip for teething baby?

[RaiderGirl94]

My baby is 3 months & teething. What worked for you? Thanks

Wine. For you.

Nothing works really - anesbol liquid helps a bit, calpol, toys to chew on though they make not be able to grab/coordinate them yet. They just have to get through it. Make sure you've got bibs to help save their tops a bit from all the dribble.

The gumee glove was good. It goes on their hands and when they go to chew their hands they have something else there. Helps with the co ordination issue for a baby so young.

And wine. Definitely wine.

Anbesol and Nelson's teething powdered or boots equivalent. Not because of any homeopathic bollocks but because the texture seemed to help.
And wine.

Calgel is brilliant imo, although I think you have to ask for it behind the counter at a pharmacy now.

Are you breastfeeding? If so it may be worth trying to express some breast milk into a lolly mould and then give your baby a milky lolly to suck on? My baby hated this but my friend's loved it! (Disclaimer this may or not not be ok to do with formula, I've got zero experience as have only breastfed!)

Good luck, teething is tough!

You can freeze formula and make ice lollies as long as everything is sterile. A cloth from the fridge or freezer to chew on helps to.

Another vote for wine!

Mine got on well with cold carrot sticks, but not sure if you would want to give them that early just in case baby managed to chomp some off!

I found Amebsol/Bonjela etc didn't really do much, baby ibuprofen at bedtime helped her sleep on the add occasion it was really bad.

Anbesol oil (not gel) and nurofen.
