Teething

Kaelynn is 4 months old and just cut her second tooth. I've been using Tylenol and orajel. I have a few teething toys for her but she isn't quite coordinated enough to get them in her mouth usually she ends up hitting her cheek and sometimes her eye. Then she gets mad and screams.  I will sit there with her sometimes and hold the toy in her mouth while she chews on it. I have one of the vibrating teethers she loves. I've tried the ice in a rag and she didn't want anything to do with that. I've tried the frozen rings also a no go. She hasn't been sleeping very good at night she's constantly stirring and crying out.

Dr. Bloom's Chewable Jewels are one item that come to mind. They are chewable pieces of jewelry that you wear that are safe for baby to chew on and they are created by a dentist so they're safe for baby's gums and teeth. Highly recommend! You can find them online.

try hylands colic tablets.. i know the teething tablets got recalled but the colic ones didn't. the indications say for stomach upsets and symptoms related to teething.

i use them when ariana is fussy and im not sure whats wrong. they work MIRACULOUSLY. you can give them 2 tablets every 15 minutes up to 8 times... so you feel like you are doing something to help & satisfy your impatience (if you're very impatient, like me, lol)

i highly recommend these.

I have no other suggestions, but im right there with ya. Cole started teething 3 days ago. he is almost 8 months old, and is just now cutting his first tooth.  i use tylenol. and just started orajel today, which he hates.  he doesnt care for teething toys either.  Cole is very cranky and fussy all day and its H*ll to get him to bed at night, but once hes asleep i dont ahve any problems till morning.

Hope you getm more answers!
