    roo's got 16 teeth already, just wondering for when the final back ones arrive - he'll bite my finger off when applying anbesol. has anyone found a teething powder that isn't lactose based? he's still milk intolerant even at 16 months.

  • my nephew was born 12th august and he is teething bless him

    he also can't keep food down - problem at the mo. something to do with the acid in his stomach so he is losing weight

    my sister uses a gel for his teething that helps

    sometimes they don't appear in the 'correct' order either, although both of mine's did. so your babe might get a tooth at the side before the front ones appear.

    She has right side molar cut now and a left side molar coming down now. My Nan said this is called cross teething according to her! Also thats how my Mum's came..

    I use Ashton and Parsons teething powders (I've had two children) and swear by them. They are about £2.35 for 20 powders.

    Here is a pic so you know what to look for

    :rolleyes:


    Edited to say: The powders also help with tummy upsets caused by teething.

    Thanks this is great. DD says thanks too. LOL

    have you tried bickie pegs? they are hard biscuit sticks to chew on and they can get them to the back teeth to chew on. they are quite good. My little one is 22 weeks and is the same, dribbled so much he got thrush on his neck!

    No I haven't as DD is on a full milk diet. But one for the future thanks.

    Hi

    My son was born with 2 bottom middle teeth, so in my opinion, they can get them at any age.

    Sorry for the abrupt posting previous (my mother was talking to me and found that rude) so my humble apologies

    Have you tried medised? its medicine like calpol, but also contains a mild a seditive (if thats correct) sorry buy my children are 10 & 7, been a while since we had teething problems, but I always found medised to be far better than neurofen or calpol.

    Good luck,
