i have tryed the teething gels but the only one that worked with my kids was sedagel i dont know whu the other ones did not work but it's whats best for your baby is all that matters

Comfort is number one!

some baby's do need pain relief but some baby's don't it depends on the baby but TLC is a much better

way to deal with it

I agree, keeping them busy and plenty of TLC always helps.  My daughter becomes very clingy when teething and does not cope well at all.  Thank you for your advice.

my 10 month old twins didnt give me sleepness nights, we just saw more teeth popping out. they each have 5, with the others slowly coming out as well. they are both cheery, playful kids, but teething with a runny tummy. just need to stock up on diapers. lol.

Distraction and TLC is very effective with babies when they are teething; I also found that using some form of pain relief, such as teething gel, like bonjela or herron was very helpful, as well as paracetamol to reduce fever if neccessary.  Things like rusks to chew on, apple chunks wrapped in muslin and tied shut, or those gel rings that you freeze were also very useful.
