[blparent] Jodie's lo is Teething

[Jo Elizabeth Pinto]

My daughter had several teethers, but the one she always went back to was 
shaped liked a duck.  I think she liked it because it was textured sort of 
like coarse sandpaper all over, but not abrasive.  Also, it had a fat part 
for the baby to hold tight.  I don't remember where the duck came from, but 
if I were to choose teethers again, I would choose ones with a lot of 
texture and places for a baby to grab on and hold.

Teething. Frozen mini bagels, or long narrow strips of dried fruit. There is
a rubber giraffe teeter that kids seem to love called Sophie, Discovery Toys
make a few really popular teeters most love the Super Yummy. Our dentist
told us that the vibrating teeters are helpful because they massage the
gums, and loosen the tissue helping the tooth to break through. There is one
sold at www.drugstore.com, and I often see them at Target, Babies are Us,
and Walmart.

There are also several homeopathic options for teething.

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.
