Accepted Answer

Breastmilk
Freezing breast milk into ice cubes can help calm your child’s sore gums. Pour the breastmilk into an ice cube tray and freeze. Once frozen, smash up the ice cubes into smaller bites and offer them in a teething mesh or baby feeder.
Nursing can also offer some relief as the sucking action may relieve pressure on your baby’s gums. Chamomile tea has wonderful properties ideal for reducing the stress and fussiness of teething. Mothers can drink this caffeine-free tea and pass the benefits of the tea along to the baby as well!
