Doctor's visit + teething
Posted: 05-26-07 07:43am

So we went to the dr. yesterday and it turns out Brayden is just teething. Its not exactly the joy ride I was ready for but we will tackle it just a little earlier then most. It seems his teeth are really low out of the jaw bone and such so he could start cutting thro any time now.


Any one have any tricks to calm a teething baby? Brayden is to little for the teething tablets and gel and he doesn't like those teethers that you put in the fridge. The dr. told us to give him a larger dose of tylenol which is helping better but he is still quite fussy!

Alyvia hates her teethers too.

I've resorted to chilling my index finger on an ice cube and then massaging her gums with it. It's a great trick I learned from my grandmother. Alyvia chews on my finger (ow) and it seems to really feel better for her.
