Well for the past few weeks now Max has been really wingey and generally clingy with me, ive put it down to him possibly feeling under the weather...i have now realised he is teething!:dohh:

I have read past threads from some of you on teething and was dreading it..but someone please tell me this doesnt last long :hissy: its like i have a monster child!! Today he has been having random screaming outbursts and his gums are really hard and red..i just dont know what to do with him and feel helpless that i cant take the pain away! :cry:

I just wondered what the other symptoms of teething were? And any hints on what to use to soothe the discomfort?

Thank you xxx
 
Teething toys, put them in the fridge to make them cold.
Teejel- but it doesnt work for us
I have been told a wash cloth dipped in water and then put in the freezer let them chew on a corner
I personally give painkillers if I see my baby is really in pain, even if he does not have a fever.
 
I used Ashton and Parsons teething powder, they worked wonders :D But someone recently told me they'd stop selling them..something to do with drug addicts using it for something..but i'm sure how much truths in it. If you can get a hold of some i definately reccomend it!
 
ashtons and parsons is definitely still in boots! I didn't find it worked wonderfully for Alasdair. I give him baby ibuprofen if it's really bad and dentinox teething gel if he's whingey. I've tried those bickiepegs too, LO not keen! It comes and goes in phases, it's not always absolutely terrible.
 
I would definitely use the ashton and parsons hon!
And if it gets really bad and I know LO is in pain and really needs some sleep sometimes I will give Calpol.
Hope those teeth come through soon xxx

I forgot to say,I read in a magazine the other day that apparently a lot of cocaine is being cut (mixed) with teething powders before its sold! I dont think theyre stopping selling it though (I hope not).xx
