Natural Ways to Relieve your Teething Baby

• At around 4-8 month of age a baby's first teeth, known as their milk teeth, start to come through. While some babies can get through teething with next to no discomfort at all, for other babies there can be a lot of pain. A baby's milk teeth do not cut through the gum, in fact chemicals are released within the baby's body, which cause the cells in the gum around the tooth to die and separate, allowing the new tooth to emerge.

Natural Remedies

• There are many, and varied symptoms of teething. Your child may show only one or two symptoms, or the whole range. The milk teeth sometimes move up and down under the gum, so teething symptoms can present themselves for a couple of months before any teeth actually emerge. Once the tooth has emerged through the gum the pain and discomfort should normally stop.

• Your baby may have a raised body temperature - but never a fever! Always consult a doctor if you baby is running a fever.

• Your baby may have red, rashy cheeks that are warm to the touch.

• Your baby's gums may be red, swollen or even appear to be bruised.

Remedies• Teething toys and things to

chew on.• Toys made specifically for

teething are a great option, as they are usually shaped in a way that is easy to hold, and are made of a texture that is satisfying and effective in easing the discomfort in a baby's gums.

Massage your baby's gums

• Massage your baby's gums• Teething pain is caused by the pressure of the new tooth pushing up through the gum. By

putting gentle pressure on the gum, the pressure and pain caused by the new tooth can be alleviated. You can massage your baby's gums gently with your finger, which will not only

relieve the pain, but will also improve circulation of blood in the gums which helps the new tooth to push through. You can try using a small amount of clove oil on you finger as you massage your baby's sore gums as this can have a numbing effect on the gums. Carefully

limit the amount of clove oil you use, as to much can upset your baby's stomach.Natural Remedies

• One common remedy for the pain of toothache and teething is letting your infant chew on a natural licorice stick (the herb, not the confectionery!) You can find natural licorice in

health food stores: real licorice feels cool and also numbs the gums when your baby chews on it.
