Breastmilk<\/strong>
\nFreezing breast milk into ice chips\/cubes can help soothe and calm your child\u2019s sore gums. Pour the breastmilk into an ice cube tray (silicone is ideal!) and freeze. Once frozen, smash up the ice cubes into smaller bites and offer them in a teething mesh or baby feeder.<\/p>\nNursing can also offer some relief as the sucking action may relieve pressure on your baby\u2019s gums. Chamomile tea has wonderful properties ideal for reducing the stress and fussiness of teething. Mothers can drink this caffeine-free tea and pass the benefits of the tea along to the baby as well! <\/p>\n
Cool or frozen items<\/strong>
\nCold or frozen foods such as carrots, bananas, or apples can be safe items for your baby to gum or gnaw on. Foods should be monitored and given in a mesh or silicone teether to prevent larger pieces from getting into your baby\u2019s mouth.
\nA slightly frozen washcloth is a favorite of many parents. Soak a clean washcloth in water or diluted caffeine-free chamomile tea and freeze it for several minutes. When your baby is showing signs of teething, feel free to offer them the cold cloth to chew on. This can help decrease inflammation and provide a soothing effect.<\/p>\nMassage<\/strong>
\nAs your baby\u2019s teeth emerge, tension can build up along the jaw creating pain that travels from their mouth up to their ears. Giving your baby a gentle facial massage can help reduce pain and irritation often caused by teething.
\nBegin by massaging with the pads of your fingertips along your baby\u2019s chin or above the top lip. Slowly move your hands to their cheeks and begin to move your fingers in a circular motion. Moving your fingers higher, draw the pads of your thumbs gently across your baby\u2019s eyebrows to remove tension.
\nThis is a great teething remedy that reduces teething symptoms, calms your baby, and is also an excellent bonding opportunity.<\/p>\nTeething toys or rings<\/strong>
\nUsing a safe non-toxic teething ring or toy is a great choice for a teething remedy that allows your baby to chew and relieve pressure. Silicone or rubber are usually safe choices. Another option can be a wooden or bamboo teether, but be sure to use a brand that uses water-based sealants and be aware that some may need to be oiled before use.<\/p>\nFor teething toys that can be placed in the freezer or refrigerator, select one that is filled with water in case a seam breaks or a hole develops.<\/p>\n
Using a clean finger<\/strong>
\nLast but not least, one of the best and oldest of natural teething remedies is using a clean finger! Rubbing your finger across your child\u2019s sore gums or allowing them to chew on your finger can help relieve tension and pain.<\/p>\nWhile there are many teething remedies, always check with your pediatrician for the best advice on how to soothe your child\u2019s teething woes. After approval, try some of these natural teething remedies to help alleviate your child\u2019s symptoms and pain. It generally takes 3-4 days for a tooth to erupt (but some children are slow teethers and it can take longer!) and symptoms to subside\u2013until the next tooth comes in! Han gint here parents\u2026you got this! And remember, teeth allow us to start chewing for better jaw development and opens a whole world of adventurous and nutrient-dense eating opportunities!<\/p>\n
