Soothing a teething child.

For days on end I have been going crazy trying to find something to chill Eli out! Not only does he attack everything trying to eat it, but it's endless boobing from the pain and sleepless nights. I've bought him teething rings, books and various other toys that he isn't humored by at all.

So I did some research on different remedies for him. I ran a crossed Baby Bliss Gripe Water which I liked because it was all natural, but I was a little skeptical about this because Gripe Water is usually used for Colic & gassy babies. It's about $11 at Taregt & so far it doesn't seem to help with teething. I've tried the Orajel and he hates it in his mouth, Ibuprofen can't be used for long and only helps temporarily, my sister in law gave me Teething Tablets yesterday and he at least likes the taste of this since they're sweet and seems to calm down about 15 mins later.

Sometimes, all you really need to do is ask someone what they've given there baby for teething!
