this is for a bit later on...but i have a four year old son, and once the teething starts, DO NOT use any of the gels they sell at the store, they are full of nasty chemicals and sugars that can cause gum damage and tooth decay...
i did what my grandparents did for my parents and what my parents did for me...
a little whiskey (jameson is always good) or other liquour (my son was fond of homemade blueberry brandy) rubbed on the gums does a far better job, just dip your finger in and rub it on the gums...it works better and lasts longer than the over the counter crap...ask your doctor and they will agree...
also, once they get older (2 and up) a thimble of blueberry brandy will settle a tummy ache...
i am not looking for arguments here, i am old world and just offering suggetion....
