Q.

#AskTheExpert My baby has turned 6 months old today itself and he is quiet irritated all the time unlike his behavior. I assume its because of teething as he is drooling a lot and puts everything in his mouth. Is there anything that can be given to baby to soothe him up ( except teether)?

A. Hi yes this irritated and cranky behaviour can be due to teething phase. you can calm down your baby by gently massaging the gum pad area with clean finger tip or moist cold cotton cloth to increase blood circulation and hasten the eruption process.

A. Apply a thin coat of a healing ointment like Aquaphor or petroleum jelly, which will act as a barrier between your baby's skin and the drool. These ointments can be soothing to your baby's irritated skin. At bath time, be sure to use a mild, unscented baby wash.
