OnSugar Blog: My Favorite Teething Solution

OnSugar Blog — Fri, 21 Jan 2011 00:05:45 PST

Lots of moms like to think out loud and Melissa-Emily is one of them. In her latest post to her Life Beyond Base blog, she shares her favorite way to fight teething tantrums.

Are you one of those moms who's tired of trying everything to give your baby relief from the teething process? I know I was! I tried everything from Humfrees to Orajel and even those rubber toys filled with liquid inside, but nothing seemed to help until I found these at Babies 'R' Us.

For those moms running out of options for your baby's teething tantrums I highly suggest Earth's Best's Teething Biscuits! They're really amazing. Not only does your little one entertain herself but it really helps soothe their gums.

Best part is they're organic, inexpensive, and you don't have to worry about them choking due to the biscuit breaking into many little pieces. As the baby plays with it, and scratches her gums, it dissolves into her mouth.

Although, choking is unlikely with all baby products make sure to supervise your child!

Baby Mum-Mum Dissolving Biscuits Have My Son Biting!

Let's get munching! When lil ones are teething, they'll eat anything. While generations of moms have turned to Zwieback biscuits to satiate their wee ones, some moms try to avoid the mess-making crackers. During a recent visit to Whole Foods, I came across Baby Mum-Mums (about $3.50 per box) and decided to give it a try. The lightly sweetened crispy rice rusks are perfectly shaped to fit in lil hands and are designed to quickly dissolve in a wee one's mouth. With a teething tot on my hands, I put the snacks to the test.

Who is this product designed for? Baby Mum-Mums are meant to be given to babies who are just starting solid foods.

Is it practical? Yes. Each box comes with 12 individually wrapped packs of two crackers – perfect for families on the go.

What sets it apart? The organic treats are made from Japonica rice, sugar, skim milk powder, and salt making them preservative, gluten, wheat, egg, and peanut-free. Their quick dissolve formula makes them easy for lil tykes to eat, and less messy than other teething biscuits.

What could be better? I almost wish the crackers wouldn't dissolve as quickly as they do because my son goes through so many!

Would you buy it? Yes! While the biscuits are designed for lil ones, I found the slight trace of sweetness to be a welcome change from traditional toasts. Best of all, I don't have to worry about hard chunks falling off of the treat and becoming a choking hazard.

What did baby think? He can't put them down! My lil one loves the autonomy he has for feeding himself the biscuits, and they appear to be soothing his sore gums as he waits for his first tooth!

My son was an absolute angel when he was all gums, but then his first tooth cut though and he let out a primal scream that would put any animal on National Geographic to shame. The glass shattering, mind numbing shriek made us realize how painful getting teeth is for him.

Here are a few remedies that brought his mouth (and our ears!) a bit of relief.

Camilia. These homeopathic single dose capsules are easy to empty into a child's mouth.
Healthy Times Teething Biscuits. Available in maple or vanilla flavors, the hard baked biscuits are wheat, soy and dairy free.
Salto Wooden Teether & Clutch. This maple and beech wood clutch can handle a bite.
