-remember to be calm. the baby picks up on your emotions. so if you are crabby then they will be too. and add that on top of an already cranky baby and you have a really big mess.
-take some wash cloths, maybe 5. and get them wet. ring them out and put them in the freezer. when the baby is fussy you can give hm.her one to chew on.
-always keep a bib on them b/c they you don't have to change their clothes so much.
-butterscotch schnapps. it is not high in alcohol content (no more then medicine is) and it taste better too. just rub a bit on their gums.
-if they are able to eat any solid foods then Cheerios are great. it gives them something to bite on without being a choking hazard.
-try not to give them Tylenol too often, you don't want them to build up a tolerance for it. but maybe every other day is good for them to have with all the pain that teething brings on.
