I'm not much help on this topic as I rarely knew that DS was teething until
I saw the new tooth that had poked through. He would eat a lot though, I
think it was because it felt good to chew on. Another clue I had was that
he chewed on his teether until he started teething and then didn't want
anything to do with it. It had little bumps on it and I think that hurt his
gums more than helped to massage them. When he did want something to chew
on, it was usually my finger.

When I had my last baby (8 yrs ago) I found a vibrating teething ring! He
loved it. I think I got it at Wal-Mart.

My grandson is a terrible teether and he's had teeth since he was 4 months
old - hope that's the only thing he gets from his uncle! He started
teething about 2 months old and my daughter gave him tempra. She still does
when he's going through a hard time. His molars are coming through now and
he's just 13 months old! My son was a terrible teether also and I rubbed
rye on his gums. He's perfectly normal today and will soon be 30! Good
luck, Roz in Montreal

Tooth jelly! There are pain soothing jels available for easing this.
Unfortunately you will encounter bouts of this upset untill all the
teeth are through. Also, give him something to bite! There are
teething rings available that you can put in the freezer that are quite
good.

I used a really weird teether for both of my kids. I would buy mini bagels
at the bagel shop and freeze them. They would gum them, not really getting
any bagel, but it had a good taste as they gummed them, were cold and
nowhere near as messy as those horrible teething bisquits. They kids still
love bagels to this day! I used this same method years later when I got my
last QI. The only side affect he had was that he would cry like mad when I
took him for car rides and happen to drive by a bagel store and not stop to
get him a bagel.

Melinda, have you tried using Oragel (sp?)......or one of those teething
ointments....sometimes they help.

fine and he too will be 30 in June.

My son (now 3 yrs.) chewed on a number of things. Mainly his toys. We
tried teething rings in the frige or freezer, but he preferred his toys.
Also we used Oragel ointment for teething and occasionally some Tylenol if
he was really having a hard time. Another thing he really seemed to like
was a Gerber product that was like really hard gramcrackers. Infact I think
that they were even called teething biscuits, but I'm not sure. Any way,
they were stick like. They are really hard so that they can't bite of little
pieces and choke. Instead they make a mush mess as they suck and chew on
them. My son was a big mess after them, but he was also much happier.

Frozen bagels are the absolute BEST...they get nice and gummy soft after
they've been chewed on and thawing a bit...
