Teething Problems

Dear L.,
I remember those nights like yesterday!! I used mostly Hyland's Teething Tablets(they are softer and dissolve right away) and sometimes Tylenol at night. Oragel never worked for us. At 13 months is when my son's behavior started to go downhill. He was a super sleeper then he woke up at night. It could be something more than teething: sore throat, ear infection. Good luck. K.

I am also a SAHM, I live in Valrico, I used this topical called Hurricane, you have to ask for it over the counter, I know the Walgreens on Bell Shoals & Bloomingdale carries it, it's about $9 & you don't have to use much, it taste like that topical the dentist puts on your gums b-4 he gives you the shot. I used this about 7 years ago on my other daughter, my 2 year old didn't seem to have any problems, luckily. Give her a teethng ring also, I used the one that vibrates when they bite on it, it massages their teeth, they have them at Walmart. Hope this helps!!!

I swear by the orajel teething stuff. And I really like the night time formula that they have out now. They didn't have that when my son was teething. It really gets my 11 month old daughter through the night.

Teething Tablets (about $6 at Walmart.) I just started using these on my 7 month old and they work great! Sometimes I also use orajel along with the tablets. The tablets don't do much for us adults (unless you take like 20!) But, for the kids you only need 3 and there are 125 in the bottle. They quickly disolve under their tongue (if you can get it under there.) Good luck--may you soon have sleep filled nights!

I used Hyland's teething tablets, too. They are for teething and loss of sleep due to teething. You can give 2-3 every couple hours, too.
