My child is a beaver

LaustiqueLaustique
in Parenting after a Loss

I just noticed that Willem has been alleviating his teething pain - we're on Evil Tooth of Doom #2 - by biting on the rail of his crib.  When I got him up from his nap, he had flecks of finish from the wood around his mouth!  We bought from a reputable manufacturer (Munire), but I don't imagine gnawing on paint of any kind is good for a wee babe.

Anyone else's baby do the beaver thing?  How do you prevent this lovely habit?

    They sell things to put over the crib that are made of plastic to prevent them from chewing on the wood.  You are def. not alone.

    Well, googling "crib rail protectors" gives me 63,000+ hits, so you're not alone!  And LOL that I clicked on a few and it's all "Protect your valuable crib from your baby..." not "Protect your baby from eating crib deritrus."

    ETA:  "crib rail teether" also gets you more hits that may be appropriate.
