We all know how it is to be up all night with a baby teething. Here are some helpful hints which helped me!

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    First, we all of course have tried the orajel for babies. I tend to stray from this as it is expensive.

  2. Step 2

    One thing you can do is freeze a toothbrush, and then when the babys gum start hurting, let him or her chew on it, It is soft as well as cold which soothes the baby's gums.

  3. Step 3

    Another alternative is a clean white washcloth, take it and just let the baby chew on it, it doesnt have to be cold or anything, my son just likes to chew on it to ease his pain.

  4. Step 4

    Also, get a frozen ice pop like the long thin ones and let him or her chew on it,

Tips & Warnings
  • Never leave child alone with any object that can be put in mouth
  • NEVER LEAVE BABY UNATTENDED AS THIS MAY CAUSE CHOKING HAZARD IF NOT WATCHED CLOSELY JUST LIKE ANY OTHER THING THAT THEY PUT IN THEIR MOUTH
