    okay, so I have some of these, but it says to dissolve them under the tongue or put in a teaspoon of water & then give to you baby??

    I just put it behind their gums (they usually lick my finger the whole time) and hold it there for a second till it disolves.

    This is a great question and thanks for the advice Cohlee, I was wondering this same thing. I was letting the pills dissolve in water and giving them to the babies via dropper. That was not a good idea because the babies did not go for it!

    My ped. nurse said to put 1-2 tablets in your hand, add a drop or two of water and use your finger to make a little paste. Rub it on the gums. I just did it a little while ago and my ds loved it, too!

    I did not know this but Hylands also make a gel. My niece was teething at 4 months and my sister used the gel. Around 5 or 6 months, we used the tablets. They were wonderful! Good luck! I so hope they work for you!

    I just pop them in their mouths, they love those things. We're getting molars now and they still work great!

    I swear by those things! They let me put them under their tounge....we use one on each side of their mouths. It does seem to make them more comfy!


    Good luck!

    I havent tried the tablets yet but they also have the gel that you can apply every 15mins and this seems to help alot as well.

    I love these as well. My babies seem to calm right down with these and it is so much easier than trying to put gel on them.

    I never did the under the tongue thing...I just put it in their mouths. I need to stock up on these, I have a feeling Olivia will be teething soon enough. The twins were teething by 3.5 months and each had 2 teeth at 5 months....I'm sure my doom is right around the corner (and to think, we were over all that with the twins already....here we go again)...lol!
