Teething

What are some things to help with teething? Baby is 4 months and has already started. It's not much but he has gotten more fussy and there is one time of day that it gets worse.
I've given 1.25 ml of baby Tylenol as directed by Dr but don't wanna drug him up.

My son is cranky now but doesn't have all the other symptoms, every baby is different, he just chews on his hands all the time but is not hungry, I already see his bottom teeth they will come out anytime soon, seems kinda early for me he's only 3 months old,  my daughter had her first teeth at 7 months.

Cold like symptoms- runny nose and sometimes a fever. Rash around the cheeks is common as well as drooling. And of course usually a cranky baby.

If he uses a pacifier try freezing it first. I've also heard really good things about sofie the teething giraffe. Some babies like it when you freeze a damp wash cloth and let them chew on it.

My baby is 3 months and has started teething, every feeding is a battle, he chews constantly on his hands but refuses to eat, ans fussy lately, with my first I didn't give tylenol or numbing gel cause I didn't want to use any medicine, just used some teething toys and waited it out, it wasn't bad, some babies have it worst than others, u can try the numbing gel if u want, u put it on the babies gums to help with pain, but if baby is not in pain just buy some teething toys.
