i have a wonderful healthy 9 month old baby girl who until recently has had only 2 teeth.. then 5 days ago she got another in and since then we get another tooth everday.. we now have 7 teeth.. any advice to help her out? is this normal? she gets up around 4 am and wont go back to bed even if i put her down at midnight.. i really need sleep. and so does she.. any advice????
Herbal teething tablets work great but to many can make for runny diapers. 2-3 every couple hours or Tylenol before bed. Babies sleep better when put to bed by doing the same routine night after night and keeping the same bed time. Later to bed early to rise is the saying. Try putting both remedies together and see if it doesn't help.
Infants tylonal.... It should give her relief and let you all enjoy large blocks of sleep.
(By the way, I never was comfortable with numbing gels, etc., because you don't know how much you end up using in a particular time period. Its still chemicals. With tylonal, you know exactly how much you've given and at what time.)
The only thing that worked for my 3 kids were the Hylands teething tablets. (find them at Walgreens or any drugstore) Also try freezing a corner of a wet washcloth and let her chew away
Tylenol and Little Teether's gel
