Teething - Any tips on what worked for your lo

Jee wiz Marijke, that is soo interesting about the necklace falling off. Now i cant wait to get mine.
I was a little scared about something around her neck but the lady said that if i was worried to just pin it to the inside of her nighties.

I also bought it online from Lovebug Products. I paid R250, but im sure its going to be worth every penny.

I bought mine for R170 I think...

Jems, I haven't had a problem with anything being around B's neck yet and she is a very busy lady!

Just called my MIL who looks after my lb and she says that he has been a bit grumpy today and def thinks that a tooth is coming. With Jade we hardly knew what was happening, she just got a runny nose.

Marijke - I'm worried about something being around Troy's neck though...?

Lauren - the real ones are about R130ish

I found that Vidol powder works very well.

How much do those teething necklaces sell for?

Juanita, I met a lady who sells them online on another website when she was almost 6 months old so I only bought one thereafter but I'm actually sad now that I didn't have one sooner. I think you can put it on from 3 or 4 months - and it makes for an interesting talking point let me tell you!

B wears hers 24/7, in bath, in bed whenever. She isn't bothered by it at all, just tugs at it when you do take it off and put it back on.

The most interesting thing I've found so far - it never falls off, as in never - but when there is a tooth coming it falls off up to 3 times on the day that the tooth breaks through the gums. As soon as I see it falling off, I tell hubby to get ready!

Marijke, when do you put her necklace on?? Does she wear it every day or only when you see her gums are swollen??

I bought my LG a teething necklace when she was about 6 months old and I have to say that the teeth moving into her gums (around 4 or 5 months) was far worse than I've had with her first and second tooth coming out.

So far I've been through less teething mixture (the sort with panado and one other thing, can't remember now) since getting the necklace than I did when the teeth were moving in and I've only rubbed dynexan on her gums once since having it.

It took about 2 or 3 weeks to 'start working', with her first tooth (at 9months 2 weeks) she was a bit out of sorts the previous day but nothing serious and woke up 3 times between 7pm and 12 and once between 12 and 7am and with the second tooth last night she went to bed at 7pm, woke up at 11 a bit niggly (took 5min to calm her and get her back to sleep) but went back to sleep and had a bottle at 4:30am - but that's it.
