My little guy is so not happy, when it comes to breaking those teeth in ,compared to my other son.I have tryed cold teether rings,teething tablets (homopathic) and giving him a cold cloth.If you know of a safe way please let me know.I don't want to give him tylnol if i don't have to.Thanks
Any info on teething will be helping him. I just don't want to see him in pain anymore.
Oh he also has 2 top and 2 bottom teeth aswell.
I know it sounds weird and old fashioned, and in this time probably rediculas. But my aunt would take a qtip and dip it in whiskey smoosh out the excess so the qtip was just a lil damp and rub it on my cousins gums. It was never enough to have any of the real effects of alcohol, and she only did it maybe two-three times every with both of her kids. Only for those times that they're screaming and there was NOTHING else she could do that would work.

“That’s how we did it in our once upon a time [and you turned out okay]!”
Sounds familiar?
So what DO you say when such fonts of unsought after advice become more intrusive than you’d like? First, un-grit your teeth and thanks be given to the person for her concern. It may be unwelcome, but she usually just wants to lend a hand. Second, pay attention to the essence of the free counsel. Try to throttle the natural urge to get defensive; you may pick up something truly valuable from the advice.
But what if it is in fact dangerous advice based on what you’ve literate about modern childcare?
Mention that what they say differs from what your child’s doctor prescribes and that you would like to follow by the pediatrician’s recommendations. Bring them along to the next doctor’s appointment if necessity be. If that still doesn’t go down easy, elaborate on why the rules have changed. Here are some representative points of argument:
Teething
When my son Jack first started teething, a friend recommended teething biscuits, while another swore by plopping a portion of wintermelon candy into her baby’s night bottle of A-one.
Tattoos and Teething Rings: Things that make ya go AHHHHH

Of what I'm gonna have to shell out for my stupid Irish smile. I still need work done, and it's not even on teeth that people are going to see. Felix jokingly (?) recommended that I just have the other teeth pulled, since that would only be an additional $500. I don't care how broke we are, if I'm driving a car that's falling apart, or if we are forced to eat cheap processed crap, I am not going to be a toothless white trash wreck. Not. Gonna. Happen. Of course, while we were trying to figure all this money stuff out last night, we talked about me heading back to work so that we could actually start rebuilding our savings and be prepared when stuff like this goes down. I'm OK with that in theory, but I still don't know how I'd go about it. We both started stressing over all the little things that we'd have to get lined up, and when dealing with stressful situations like this, Felix craves junk food. And maybe I do, too. Maybe. But it doesn't matter since I still can't chew anything. Anyway, we took a break from stressing over money so that he could run to Qwik Stop and get some crap to soothe himself. He took my car and bought a plethora of processed crap- ChicOStik, CornNuts, cheesecake muffins, Skittles, and some reasonably healthy pistachios. Because we're not pigs. He hopped back in the car and tore back to the house. With all of this is going on we're going to have to scrap our planned trip to Disneyland. Which totally blows. I'm not even gonna get mad at Aiven when she cries about it. I'll probably crawl in bed with her and cry, too. I'm not a naturally optimistic person, so it's going to take more than a few pats on the back and motivational quotes to get me back to my Happy Place today.
Oh hun I am so, so sorry! I like to tell myself all bad things happen in threes, but sometimes all three of those things are so awful they count as even more. I hope you guys can get everything sorted out. And even though the Disney trip has to put on hold, I hope you guys can figure out a time in the future when you'll be able to go again! I'm a stress eater too, I can't stand it but I don't fight it...
