Teething Tips: Keep Calm and Support Your Baby
Teething can be a breeze for some babies, barely causing a ripple in their routine. For others, it’s a prolonged affair filled with discomfort. Here’s how to navigate this stage without biting your nails.
When Does Teething Start?
The timing of your baby’s first tooth largely depends on genetics. Typically, the first tooth emerges around seven months, but it can appear as early as three months or as late as their first birthday. Teething symptoms might start a few months before the tooth emerges, making it seem like an endless process. The first few teeth often cause the most discomfort, which generally eases with subsequent ones.
How to Alleviate Teething Pain
There are several remedies to ease your baby’s discomfort without relying on medication. Homeopathic teething tablets that dissolve on the tongue can be very effective. You might also try wetting and freezing baby washcloths, twisted into stick shapes, for your baby to chew on. These can be more soothing than refrigerated teething rings. If pain persists, a small dose of acetaminophen or ibuprofen before bedtime can help your child sleep more comfortably.
Other Teething Symptoms
Teething can bring along a few additional symptoms. Some babies experience stomach aches and diarrhea due to increased saliva production. A low-grade fever is also common. My daughter had what we called “teething poop,” which was more acidic and caused skin irritation. We soothed this with oatmeal baths and by promptly changing her diaper after bowel movements.
Conclusion
Teething is a natural part of growing up, and while it can be painful, it’s temporary. Stay attentive to your baby’s needs, and soon enough, you’ll be rewarded with a bright, toothy smile!
