Get a wet, cool wash cloth for him to chew on. Sometimes babies like it if you freeze them. My daughter didn't. She just like the wet one.

There are a billion gadgets you can get for teething. Teething rings, some people use tooth brushes for the baby to chew, etc.

Hylands are the best.

I got teething rings for my son when he was teething, it looked like the number 8 with little raised bumps.....I always kept them in the fridge, so that the cold ring could dull any pain he may have been having.......He loved chewing on them.

Oni's 2 front teeth are begninning to hemmorage through the gums and she does the same thing. She's been doing it since she was 3 months.

Anything works...Even a finger! They don't care what it is...As long as it puts pressure on their gums.

I have this mesh thing that can hold solid foods. They are able to hold too w/out choking on the food. It's amazing!!!! I put *cold* pineapple, peaches,grapes, and nanas in it. And i'll put peas, potatoes, carrots, basically any food you(or your lil one prefers) in it and they can chew allll day on it!!!

I do infant reflexology on .Oni every night.

I've done it since she was 3 weeks old! She's slept *through the night* at 5 weeks old.

It's not only a very bonding experience, but it's great for their blood flow and digestion!!
