Teething nightmare

[skatured]

Finally she is asleep. This was the worst night so far -- her second top tooth is coming through. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. She is just so miserable. I wish she would chew on stuff or want cold stuff or SOMETHING to help with this instead of crying

My sis in law swears by this herbal stuff they sell at Whole Foods...It's got calendula in it, I think. And it's not the Hylands teething tablets...wish I could remember the name of it. I'll get back to you on this.

Does Tylenol help?

[ziggyk]

"Camilia" is what we have used in the past. Not sure how effective it was though.

[majellen]

THAT was it. I thought calendula sounded wrong...it's a butt cream thing, isn't it?

Anyway, couldn't hurt to try. What HAVE you tried so far?

[skatured]

Yeah, what have you tried that has worked so far? Anything?! Hints appreciated. :D

The Tylenol doesnt' seem to be doing the same magic it used too. I asked Tim to buy another bottle of it since it is over a year old, and I hadn't washed the dropper after every use so maybe some salvia digested what was in the bottle so it's less effective. The motrin is working -- but we don't like giving that to her more than once a day because it's hard on the tummy and she still has reflux issues.

We try the hylands candy and they don't seem to have any effect. Hm I wonder if it would be worth going to whole foods for the tonic...probably not.

I wish she would chew on shit to help bust those teeth through!
