Today I found one white lump on each side of Poppy's top gum in about the place that canines are usually found. I think she might be teething and that might explain why she's been so unsettled in the past couple of days. I've noticed she's been drooling lots and sucking on her hands too but didn't think anything of it.
She's been really fussy on the breast too but I think this could be related to something else (ie she's had a bottle a couple of times and now thinks it's much better than the breast as it comes out quicker!).
Apparently they can teeth this early but you can't give them bonjela - does anyone else know how else I can relieve the pain for her?
I swear by a homeopathic remedy called Teethmed by Naturopharm. It has chamomile to calm and belladonna for pain and fever. You spray it into her mouth, initially every 15 minutes until it works or 2 hours. A friend has had good results by rubbing it into gums too.
Fay cut 4 top teeth a few weeks ago and yeah it was pretty miserable but she responded well to the spray. Not sure if there is a lower age limit tho
Sam has a white lump on his bottom gum and has been unsettled too. He is sucking his hands a lot and drooling. He is about the same age as Poppy. I thought it was really young to be cutting teeth too!
Olivia started teething at 8 weeks, bonjela and pamol was the cure usually. I checked with my Dr at 3 months about using bonjela and he gave me a frown and said "It's bonjela..." so using a little (at this age) wont hurt
