At our daycare we also had kiddos use these two:
1) These were nice because they doubled as a small snack! Plus they were good for kids who would tend to throw other teethers or refuse them outright. Parents tended to put peaches/ mangos, strawberries etc. I’ve seen online that you can also do frozen fruits for extra relief, and some moms have even froze breastmilk “ice cubes” as well. Downside is they can be a bit messy, just a heads up.
2) These were also great to pop in the freezer! I like the variety of textures they have so you can find which ones your baby likes/dislikes.
I’m a FTM so I can only speak to what we used in my infant room at work, but overall loved having teethers you can freeze.
@1sttimemomma98 I was telling MH about the fruit feeder teethers and mention putting frozen breastmilk in them and his comment was "oh, like ice cream!"😂😂
DD LOVVVVVED this thing! We lost it somewhere along the course of life. It was super easy for her to hold and she loved gnawing on it
