My lil raven like when I rub the outside of his moth where his teeth hurt! But he acys like he enjoys our fingers more so than his teething ring.

Freeze a pealed banana. Trust me it works and it's good for them.

Wrap a clean washcloth around an ice cube and tie a knot around the end with a clean piece of yarn or string to hold the ice in. My daughter loves to chew on it. Also freezing a wet washcloth works too.

A remedy that has worked wonders for all 3 of my babes is High Quality Organic Roman Chamomille Essential Oil. Mix one drop with some sweet almond oil or organic extra virgin olive oil and massage on the gums and also on the outside, behind the ears and down along the jawline. The oil has an analgesic and antiseptic quality and the scent is similar to a fresh green apple and is very soothing.Check with a natural doctor if you have questions. feel free to visit our home for families at www.TheRealParents.com

the frozen banana is a good idea but only tell they can break pieces off cause they might choke

They say that orajel is no longer reccommended because of the ingredients. Their is an alternative though. Its called Hylans Homeopathic Teething Gel. Ive seen it at meijers so im sure you can get it anywhere really. I have not used it yet, but have heard good things about it.
