teething tablets

I have tried the Humphries teething tablets with Waylon yesterday, but they made no difference. Is it just that brand or do you think they just won't work for him?

After I rub some baby orajel on his gum he calms down much better. His bottom gum has 2 red lumps and you can actually feel the little square teeth underneath! Poor baby!

I got this thing from walmart its in the shape of a star and when they bite down on it, it vibrates on their gums. That thing was a life saver for Raygen. She would chew and naw on thing for hours. I never tried the strips

Megan liked that, Kylie didn't. We used Hyland teething tablets, but what worked most of all for both my girls was something cold on their teeth. Most times that was breastmilk popsicles I made for them. Other times, if I was out of the homemade pops Dh would give Kylie a frozen burrito or frozen veggies to chew on (in the bag of course, lol).

My granny would always give the kids a bag of frozen green beans. It worked good also. I always laughed cause it was cute looking at them chewing on that, but it worked.

Ok, I had to hunt for my burrito pic of Kylie. I have "momsicle" one's too, but liked this one the best. Sorry, had to share.

try this, it works like a charm.

With Avery I just put a wet washcloth in the freezer and then let her go to town with it. It gets a bit messy, but it's just water.

Thanks for the great ideas... I'll be sure to try them! I'll take a look at the site you posted, too, Jennifer.
Any ideas for helping them sleep at night, other than Tylenol? I just hate giving him meds, ya know?
