Has anyone on here used this? How do I give it to him - should it be a paste that I rub on his gums or disolved in water? I am not sure??

I tried to use it dissolved in water but he wouldn't drink it.
If you have no luck with the powder then try the liquid instead, we have that and its great.

I used the Weleda Colic powder and through lots of trial and error, found that it was easiest to wet your finger, dunk it in the powder and put it on babies tongue. I'm sure you can do the same with the teething powder.

I think you are meant to make a paste and rub on the gums

I have a different type of teething powder and have never had trouble 'pouring' it in his mouth (he still just opens his mouth for it.

I just put it on one of his little baby spoons and pop it in his mouth.
It dissolves really quickly so is very hard for them to spit out.
It works pretty well for us, I always give that first and if he won't settle the next stop is Pamol.
Good luck!

I used it years ago with Natasha....I used to put it on a spoon or if she wouldn't take that I would wet my finger and rub in on her gums.
I'd actually forgotten all about it but Alyssa hasn't really had any trouble teething yet (she only has four so far)

I use it the same as caraMel - I pop it on one of his feeding spoons - drizzle a bit of water from the tap to fill the feeding spoon then pop it in his mouth.. I was told to do this 4/5 times a day.

Thanks for all the suggestions, today I tried just dipping my finger in the powder and letting him suck it off...which he wasnt too worried about.
