Hello, I have a 5 month old daughter and she has been teething and hasn't been ing through night, she wakes up everynight at 3am and won't go back to for at least an hour...any suggestions??
Have you tried baby anbesol? have you talked to your doctor about giving her infant tylenol? how about a binkie or a teething ring?
Sometimes it just takes time.....she'll eventually stop.

Hi. Sorry your baby is keeping you awake. Teething was always a hard one for me. Even harder on the baby.
The only thing that ed with my boy's was infant tylenol.
You can ask your doctor if he/she has samples of the tylenol suspension drops as tylenol tends to be over priced.
You can buy the store brand or generic brand, but I found that they don't "taste" as good.
You can always try wetting a wash cloth and then freezing it.
Hope this s.
My son didn't have much trouble with teething that I recall. I did work in an Infant room of a Daycare for 3 1/2 years though. It can be really miserable for them, as it really does hurt & often it is the first "real pain" they will experience! So lots of love & cuddles, sweet soft music, teething rings or washclothes, and a little Tylenol or Anbesol, that's my prescription!
Good luck!
Chris

As much as I hated to "drug" my son, the only thing that gives us any peace is Tempra Drops(no one mentioned this so maybe that brand is only here in Canada). My son claws at his ears until they bleed because teething makes them really sensitive, so giving him something to kill the pain was really our only option after we tried everything else.
My sister is a homopatheic <~ however she spells that ,Dr. in California and when my daughter was teething ,cranky & restless she gave me the advice to go to the health food store and get some camomile tablets for her.
They worked like a charm.
Yes they are made for babies in baby strength just ask the sales person they'll be able to show you where they are in the store.
Hope this s you and others out

Betting that this ed I'm wide awake reaction to the available time won't bother you for long.
Hoping your sweet little is feeling better and not quite as bothered by cutting those mean teeth.
BIG HUG 4 YOU.

Well glad to hear the baby slept through thenight but the only thing that ed us was the tylenol we ended up usingit the dr. told me that the ablesol is worthless because they drool so much with teething that it washes out of them quicky. I had triplets and theyall did it at different times. during the day I froze faceclohs and such and let them chew on them andthey I would wash my handsreally good and massage there gums with firm pressure on ther egums and it seeme to also.
good luck with it its difficult and it hits children differently.
