What can I do to ease my little one teething pain? I have tried applying teething gel (Dentinox), cold teether and cold handkerchief also. He is not drinking any drop of milk. I have tried to feed him using spoon but he has become really irritable. What to do?

There are natural remedies for easing baby's teething pain. One of them is teething necklaces. Myself and some friends used it when baby is teething and can see the good results. http://sg.theasianparent.com/baltic-teething-remedy-amber-teething-necklace/ There are two types of teething necklaces: Amber Teething necklace and Hazelwood Teething. The main difference between the two is the type of materials used. The one I used was Amber Teething necklace which has anti-inflammatory and therapeutic properties. If you feel uncomfortable to let baby to wear the necklace on neck (choking hazard), you can wear it on other place as long as directly on the baby's skin e.g. ankle. In addition, you can do baby massage for teething. Example of teething massage can be found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvLU-lIwUHs Also, you can try to offer teething biscuits such as teething rusk from Heinz/Only Organic.

For the issue on the milk intake during teething period, maybe you can try to feed through syringe? I believe your baby's appetite on milk will pick up again once he/she feels more comfortable.

thanks
