I would rub a drop of vanilla extract on their gums & it worked great for my babies.

frozen washcloth or frozen soother

For mine, I rubbed a drop of Tylenol directly onto their gums. I froze a wet washrag and let them go to town on it.

Something cold to chew on. A cold washcloth if he doesn’t want teething toys. Tylenol can help and if it doesn’t you can rotate between that and Motrin to help with the pain. You could try baby massage and anything to relax him. I’ve had tooth pain before and it sucks. Also depending on how old he is you could do frozen yogurt or fruit for him to chew on. Good luck!

I teethed on Slim Jims for a minute then my mom would give me a cold wash cloth to chew on

I freeze his tething toys for about 10 minutes. Give him a bag of frozen veggies to play with lol I don’t know if it helps with teething but it sure distracts him. Also, Tylenol will help I use it when he’s having a bad night.

I peeled oranges, froze the slices and gave them to my kids to chew on. Frozen green beans work as well, so do frozen wet wash rags.

I crushed ice in a rag and tied it off. (Do Not Leave Baby Alone While Chewing On AnyThing) but the coldness helps the gums and the rag help break the teeth thru :heart:

I freeze his teething toys. I also give him Tylenol. It helps a lot, fruit popsicles or frozen fruit chunks. And that worked wonders

Green onion stick works for mine.

Vibrating teething toy, baby orajel, baby motrin to reduce the pain and swelling, frozen fruit in one of those mesh pacifier looking small things, let them chew on a soft bristled tooth brush supervised,

I always bought Hylands teething tablets. I don’t know if they still make them. I always bought them at the grocery store.

Camilia drops. They helped with my 3rd. Also if you are breastfeeding, breast milk popsicles. Put them in a silicone feeder and they love it. They have a natural version now of teething gel as well that you can apply with a cotton swab. Do not put any necklaces on your baby tho, please. Not only are they useless, they are dangerous!

Even Mary & Joseph had that problem

Put him in a swing they say it works

A frozen waffle you can re freeze in a zip lock. WATCH CAREFULLY so they don’t bite a piece off.

Tylenol and if theyre over 6 months old, Ibuprofen as well.

Tylenol? I saw hack ppl freezing water in a binky, or freezing washcloth with breast milk, also saw something about celery

22

Pure vanilla rub on the gums

Or teething tablets.

Old fashioned Terry cloth washcloths…. Dampen half of it and put it in the freezer in a ziploc bag. Let him rub his gums on it. Just supervise him with it. Depending on his age there are teethers that you can put fruit inside and freeze that will allow him to chew and the juice from the fruit will come through but the actual fruit inside just gets mushed. My granddaughter loved those.
