Besides the goodies from MAM here are a few other Twiniversity Tips that can help sooth any teether in your home:
6 Tips to Sooth Any Teether
1. Using a Clean Finger, Rub Your Baby’s Gums!
The pressure can help soothe them.
2. Keep a Clean Cold Washcloth at the Ready and Allow Your Baby to Chew On It (Supervised of Course).
The coolness will ease their discomfort. *NOTE: the washcloth should be “cool” not frozen.
3. Bottle Feeding?
Occasionally you’ll find that your teethers want more milk, what they might actually want is just to “chew” on the nipple. Ask the doc’s permission if you can give your baby water, and allow them to have a bottle when they like. Why not just give them extra milk/formula? The sugars in them can lead to tooth decay.
4. Food Can Help
Giving a baby a hard food to gnaw on (like a teething biscuit) can ease their teething woes. Keep your eyes on them at all times to avoid a piece breaking off and potentially choking them.
5. Ask Your Doctor if an Over the Counter Medication Can Help
If your baby is really uncomfortable, giving them a little acetaminophen or ibuprofen can help.
6. Get Some Teething Rings!
The better ones, are made of hard firm rubber. Teethers that are filled with liquid might pop under the pressure of your babies gums.

DIY Teething Biscuits
Ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup dry infant rice cereal with bananas (or other flavored or
- unflavored infant cereal)
- 3 tablespoons cooking oil
- ice water
Directions
- Preheat oven 425F.
- Mix flour and cereal.
- Gradually stir in oil. Mix a little ice water at a time (start with 1/4 cup) until dough begins to form a ball and pull away from the bowl.
- Roll out to the thickness of a cracker on a floured surface and cut into desired shapes.
- Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet 10-12 min. or until lightly brown. Cool completely.
Store in an airtight container. (you may want to try 1/2 plain and 1/2 flavored baby cereal as the taste when using full flavored baby cereal is very strong.)
