Teething and Sleeping Issues!

Neary2011

My son is 7 months old and has started to get teeht, he is getting the first 2 on the top and then 2 more on both sides and then one on the bottom, he is so miserable and isn't sleeping much at all at night, I have tried all,that I can think of so I am coming to ask advice, please be kind with your replies thank you.

Background Info: I have given him Tylenol and oral gel, he has plenty of stuff to chew on during the day, just don't know what else to do.

In my opinion motrin works better than tylenol. Also, oragel is not recommended to use anymore. We like the Hyland brand baby teething tablets. Also cold fruit like watermelon in the mesh feeders seem to help too.

We use teething tablets but we aren't seeing much of a difference, just want to help him but nothing seams to be working.

Agreed, children's Motrin works much better than Tylenol for teething. Also it lasts longer (6-8 hrs) while Tylenol works for about 4.
