Teething tips

Help me. 18 week old I'd definitely teething. Red cheeks, dribbling, chewing anything he can get his hands on.

Most things say 5 months plus so I'm struggling to use much more than calpol and teething rings - which isn't doing much.

Am I missing something I can give to him thats suitable for his age?

Nurofen is better than calpol. From 5 months anbesol gel not liquid is good. All the teething powders are just sugar and are food stuff not medicine so I wouldn’t bother with them.

Thank you. i saw anbesol so will use that when he is old enough.

not yet tried nurofen and I think that's from 3 months so I'll try it
