[blparent] Jodie's lo is Teething

[Erin Rumer]

I never made my own teething biscuits but I bought the ones from Earth's
Best.  I love their products but honestly hated the teething biscuits
because my son would soften them up just enough to get a huge chunk off and
nearly choke on it if I didn't quickly fish it out of his mouth.  I've heard
similar testimonies about all types of teething biscuits and seen this
happen with one of my friend's kids so beware.  I personally think it's best
for them to bight on things that only gives them juice or puree or a solid
toy they can't break.  I was sitting in my living room with a sighted friend
of mine and her 8 month old son.  I was telling her about my experience with
the teething biscuits I purchased and she said that she'd like to give them
a try to see if it's the same for her.  Sure enough before we knew it, her
son had sucked an huge chunk off of the biscuit and began choking.  My
friend was quickly scrambling to get him in a face down position while she
fished the piece out of his mouth.  We all sighed with relief once it was
out and her son was alright and the rest of the teething biscuits went to my
dog as snacks.  He had no problem getting them down! SMILING

Hi Jodie,
Azaan is also teething now. Actually, he only has one and strangely enough,
it (the teething process) doesn't seem to bother him much -- except for a
burst of pain every now and then.
I had not heard of the vibrating teethers: sounds interesting.
Have you tried either making or buying teething biscuits?
My guy loves a wash cloth, but only when he can get water out of it.
Good luck and I know that after I write this, Azaan will have the most
horrible few days of teething ever. It is just my luck. So, would love to
know if anything uncommon or (not said here) worked for you.
thanks.
Good luck.
