A. Hi yes you can give pacifiers, frozen fruit slices of cucumber, carrot, banana, papaya, chilled silicone based or wooden based teething rings or toys to chew on.. gently massage the gum pad area with clean finger tip

A. Hello dear parent! Try giving Babyhug teethers for your baby. Maintain a good personal and oral hygiene. Gently press your child’s gums with a soft cotton cloth dipped in cold water to reduce teething discomfort. Continue to breastfeed.
