Hi,

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not put anything with any paraben in or on your

child. ALL parabens

are very dangerous and should not be in anything that comes near us much

less a child.

You can use propolis, which has a numbing effect. You will need to find a

tincture

that perferably does not have alcohol in it. They do exist.

Also organic vanilla extract with no alcohol can be used and will help the

area.

Then there is the green part of a salad onion ( I think they are called

scallions in the US).

There is an ingredient in the green part that naturally numbs the gum.

Slightly wet a wash cloth and put it in the freezer for a short time, just

enough to make it

cold NOT frozen hard. let the child chew on the cloth obviously with

supervision.

Cold cucumbers to chew on.

Hope this helps

Would clove oil be any good? It is sold in my health food shop for

toothache.

Hi Miriam,

I didn't mention clove oil as it is possible to cause die off in the baby if

the

child as any candida issues, thus adding to the crankiness that goes with

teething at times.

Here are a few ideas that helped my son when he was teething.

1)Massaging his gums with a tiny bit of clove oil on my finger, he

really loved me doing this.

2)Bathing him in an soothing herbal bath and letting him chew on the

wet washcloth.

3)A hard teething ring with little bumps on it to chew on, alternated

with a freezer teething ring to chew on.

Most of all stay calm and loving, try not to get caught up in what

they are going through because they pick up on it and get even more

upset.

If you can't calm down and have someone to help you, maybe it is time

to take a break and let them take the baby for a little while.

Go take a few deep breaths do a little stretching, take a walk or do

something to relax, like taking an herbal or H20 bath. Make sure you

have enough nourishment like Bee's Egg Drink for those much needed

breaks with supplements.

Hope this helps. :-)

==>You can give him a terry washcloth that was soaked in cold water.

Kids love to chew on it because of the texture and it numbs their gums

some. Also you can rub " alum " into the gums (found in a drug store).
