another teething question

mrsmacias2008

the tablets were recalled?  I think it's called Hyland. The pharmacist at target said they don't carry any type at all, just orajel. But a friend was telling me about some teething strips that are also by Hyland. has anyone tried those? The boys are getting a Sophie and don't really like the teething rings. Orajel (nightime) made them scream although the cherry flavored one wasn't too bad.

Also, this is the first I heard about this, but using green onions for teething?! I was talking to a few CW's about the boys and they said to get the skinny green onions and rub the white part all around the gums! I have never even heard of that.

Do they have any vibrating teething toys?  My duo wouldn't touch teething rings with a 10 foot pole, but they had these vibrating star things that they absolutely loved, and seemed to help with teething. 

Motrin also worked really well for them, and it was either a huge coincidence or the amber teething necklaces helped some too (at least with Nathan).

I've never used them, but I have friends who swear by teething strips. I know there is another brand of tablets/strips, I believe its Humphries? I haven't heard of using green onion but I'm going to look into that based on pure curiosity alone! We have an amber teething necklace and noticed a difference within 24 hrs of putting it on him.

No, just the regular cold ones. I don't want to use them though because I am all paranoid if they get punctured. I am not going to use Orajel because Nick scared the crap out of me. And I was just reading on some horror stories about parents who used this.

Where could I get amber necklaces? And I will have to look for the vibrating ones.

Inspired by Finn seems to be where most people get their amber necklaces.  That's where mine is from, but I lucked out and caught them on Baby Steals one day when they were like half off.

I'm grabbing a necklace off of Etsy today because E's miserable.  You can search Amazon for them. They have a lot.
