Chilled teething rings.

  • Infant ibuprofen for the pain (especially for sleeping).
  • Amber teething necklace.
  • A barley drink can help neutralise the acidity of a baby’s saliva.
  • Homeopathic chamomilla.
  • Other homeopathic remedies such as Weleda’s Baby Teething Powder and Naturo Pharm’s Teethmed Relief.
  • Chemists sell teething gels to rub on the gums (e.g. Bonjela)

especially useful before bedtime.

  • Teething toys for your little babe to relish slobbering all over.  
  • Eliminate starchy foods from their diet.
  • Homeopathic aconite is very effective with counteracting the one-red cheek scenario.
  • Great teething food ideas include frozen bananas (peel and wrap in clingfilm to freeze), dried bananas (buy at health shops), pieces of peeled apple wrapped in gauze-cloth to gnaw on, cold celery sticks, and freezing the wet corner of a flannel to chew on. But always be very careful to avoid baby choking on small pieces of food.
