Homeopathic teething

If you would like to try a homeopathic way to help your baby while teething here are 5 ways to help!

Hylands Teething Tablets- These are a sweet tablet for teething children. Unfortunately Hyland's has chosen to remove there tablets for a recall because there is currently no safety lid on the bottle and the tablets can only be taken in small dosages as recommended which some parents are not following. Belladonna is in the tablets which is what is causing the huge hub bub! So wait for this to come back on the market before giving this to your kiddo, the ingredients in this are;
Calcarea Phosphorica - natural salt that helps your body absorb calcium - Good
Chamomilla - natural wild flower - tea anyone - Good
Coffea Cruda - natural herb used for sleeplessness, alcohol withdraw support and teething - (no caffeine) - Good
Belladonna - hmm, AKA deadly nightshade, used for centuries for it's anti inflammatory effects. - this is the opiate they are talking about - 0.0003% Alkaloids - this is the amount in there - not enough to get your baby high by a long shot - OK

Hylands Kids Kit- This contains Aconite 30X, Arnica 30X, Belladonna 30X, Chamomilla 30X, Ferrum Phos. 30X, Hapar Sulph. 30X, Bumps 'n Bruises Ointment. This seems to be all the rave with several moms! These also come in the tablets which my kiddo absolutely loves the tablets.

Camilia Teething Relief- Unlike the Teething Tablets this is a liquid. It helps with sore gums, restlessness & irritability that comes along with teething. It's alcohol free, sugar free & has not artificial colors, flavors or preservatives! It comes in a handy dandy little unbreakable and sterile disposable capsule. This is only for children 4 months and older. The ingredients are Belladonna
( because these are in capsules it's given in moderation ) Chamomilla & Ferrum Phosphoricum.

Humphreys Teething Pellets- These are a lot like the Hylands except they come in Very Cherry and Very Berry.

Hylands Teething Gel- This is also like the Baby Orajel but all natural baby! I am not sure on the strength of this but it comes recommended from various sources.
