Its-Chelle - 146 days ago Rating: 5 (1 votes) baby orajel, teething tablets, infant tylenol or infant motrin since she is over 6 mo of age..cold wet cloths,teething rings,etc..for some babies teething is just horrible and painful until the tooth finally cuts through..these are my only suggestions..sometimes the motrin helped when tylenol didnt..good luck!

mcbender3 - 146 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) Will she bite on a toy that you put in the freezer to freeze?? My son loved this! But some babies don't chew on toys but if she does, I would try that. My son was never really whinny when he teethed and still slept his nights, so i don't really have experience with this. He only had a runny nose and was crabby a little. You can give her baby tylenol (check with your doc. about what amount of dose to give her) My son usually has .06 every 4 hours.

Julianna - 146 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) There are these really cool teether thingies that you can put ice of frozen fruit or whatever cold in that you want to put in them. It is a mesh bag so there is no choking hazard. Nicholas LOVED these things and all I put in them was ice chunks. It helped tremendously. If all else fails, rub a drop of whiskey on her gums... :) Seriously. there are also so teething tablets (I forget what they are called) but you should be able to get them at a drug store. they just dissolve in the baby's mouth. Good luck!!!
