Hi there, looking for some advice. My beautiful boy is 16 weeks old (he's our first), for the last couple of weeks he appears to be teething. As soon as I go to give him his bottle he starts to scream histerically. He is getting some relief from bonjela & pamol but it's getting worse. Have had him @ the doctors to check it's not his ears & everything checks out fine, anything we can try? We miss our happy smiley boy Cheers |

Hi! Sucking on cold things like an icecube wrapped in cloth can also help numb the gums a bit. We found when our son was teething we'd have about 2 bad weeks, then the tooth would pop out and he'd go back to being happy again. So hang in there! ------------- Me: 35, PCOS, endo, DH: 34, severe MFI 6+ yrs TTC#2 M/C 2012, clomid 2013, IVM 2014, IVF 2015, M/C 2015 2016 FET#1- BFP - MMC - Emergency D&C FET#2 - BFN Jul 16 - stage 3 endo removed.

Hi, try filling a dummy with water (can do it to some of them) and put it in the freezer for a bit. Give it a quick rinse under the tap before giving it to him. My boy loves it! ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

| Try giving your lo a frozen binky right before a feed. Should help numb the mouth. Other thing my LO loves to chew on is his teething mittens http://www.etsy.com/shop/easybreazybaby" rel="nofollow - http://www.etsy.com/shop/easybreazybaby |
