1. Teething Toys: Provide safe teething toys that are cool or chilled (not frozen) to soothe sore gums.
2. Cold Foods: If your baby has started eating solids, offer cold foods like chilled fruit or yogurt, which can help numb the gums.
3. Gentle Massage: Gently massage your baby’s gums with a clean finger to provide relief.
4. Teething Gels: Consult your pediatrician before using any over-the-counter teething gels or medicines.
5. Keep the Area Clean: Maintain good oral hygiene by gently wiping your baby’s gums with a soft, damp cloth.
6. Comfort and Cuddling: Extra cuddling and comfort can help soothe a teething baby.
If you notice severe symptoms or if the teething seems to be causing significant issues, consult your pediatrician for advice and to rule out any other potential problems.
