Natural Remedies for Teething |
Teething can be a very distressing time for both parents and baby. There are several natural remedies that are popular for teething babies.
General Teething SupportAllowing breastfed babies to feed on demand helps a great deal with discomfort experienced with teething. The pressure from sucking brings about relief as does the natural hormones in breastmilk which help soothe the baby.
Many babies enjoy gumming firm objects. Bread rusks are not a good idea for exclusively breastfed babies as they are a source of food other than breastmilk. Either way bread rusks provide carbohydrates and those break down to simple sugars in the mouth. This may contribute to tooth decay problems or provide an energy source for problematic bacteria unless the baby uses the rusk for a short period of time and their mouth is rinsed out afterwards.
Ideal objects to gum include clean fingers, knuckles, organic "hard" cloth toys such as the organic veggie box toy set.
