In order to help a baby during teething, many medicines have been created and are actively used.
But it is possible to alleviate suffering even without using medications. Every parent should know how to do this.
Gum massage
A light massage of the gums helps to reduce discomfort and itching. You can massage with either clean fingers or special silicone brushes designed for gum massage.
Teethers
Teethers are special toys designed for babies who are teething. They are made from soft materials. Teethers come in different shapes and textures to help relieve itching and pain in the gums.
Cold objects
If you see that your child is bothered by teeth, offer him cold objects, such as cold water in a bottle or frozen fruit, to reduce inflammation and itching in the gums.
Abstraction
Keep your baby busy with interesting games or activities to reduce his or her focus on the discomfort associated with teething.
Moisturizing
Make sure your baby gets enough fluids to help reduce dry mouth and prevent gum irritation.
Proper nutrition
Offer your baby soft, cool foods, such as yogurt or fruit, to help reduce discomfort and soothe sore gums.
