    One of our LO's is teething REALLY BADLY! He is up ALL night and we are at a loss as to what to do. We have given Tylenol, but it doesn't seem to help. I have heard mixed reviews on baby anbesol (sp). Has anyone used this? If not, what else did you use to ease the pain of teething?
    TIA

    Poor baby! I would actually give him Motrin instead of the Tylenol, I think it works better for teething and it lasts longer! Also, I have heard that the Baby Orajel Nighttime is really good, it has more of the pain numbing stuff in it than the regular kind. :hug99:

    I was always nervous to give Ambesol in case they swallowed it then the throat would be numb. Motrin and teething tablets have done wonders for us during teething.

    I hardly ever used tylenol, what worked great for us was Hyland's teething tablets at TRU or BRU and baby oragel, I don't know if there is a baby anbesol. It helped them to sleep and the tablets instantly calm them if it is teething that is the problem. They dissolve right on the tongue, I gave them as early as 4months. GL!

    I have used baby Anbesol & really couldn't tell that it helped at all. Motrin or Tylenol always worked better for us. Good luck! :)

    I have heard a lot of good reviews on Hyland's teething tablets. I used Orajel and Motrin. Those always seemed to work well for me.

    We go for the Tylenol or Motrin/Advil too.
