How to ease the pain of Teething

Some baby’s are born with teeth, thank goodness none of mine were otherwise I would have opted not to breastfeed.

The first thing I notice when my kids started to teeth was their little cheeks turning rosy and they started to chew and slobber on everything. Some of the side effect of teething include: low grade fever, diaper rash, diarrhea, running nose, not sleeping, ear infections, mouthing everything they get their hands on and slobbering.

  • Use Tylenol to help with pain and fever
  • Teething ring: I like using the fresh food teething feeder. I will put an ice-cube, popsicle or even frozen peas inside to help alleviate the pain and give them something rewarding to chew on.
  • Numbing medicine. I haven’t had great luck with these but when baby doesn’t feel good its worth trying anything.
