I was reading a section about teething yesterday, and they had some homemade ideas. One was to use a clean sock and put crushed ice in it and then tie it off and let her chew on that. (It's basically the same idea as the mesh feeders.) We haven't had to conquer that yet, but let us know what works for you!Cat W.http://twitter.com/windmill_catnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604080738678475033.post-85394926447282531282012-03-13T21:51:58.180-04:002012-03-13T21:51:58.180-04:00No, thank you for writing the post!

I would put three bibs on her, one on top of the other, to try to keep her clothes dry. Be sure to check her neck often to make sure she is not getting a rash. My friends all swear by Sophie. I used a wet washcloth in the freezer often. But honestly, she will probably finder own things to gnaw on and bring relief. Rebecca liked board books and wooden blocks. Hang in there. When they start popping through it is really cool.Ann-Marienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604080738678475033.post-10533663660334112972012-03-09T16:32:52.389-05:002012-03-09T16:32:52.389-05:00Of course I will pray for your intentions.

It's so true though, what you do really does mean the world that that precious girl of yours! :-)<br />We have Sophie! So far, she's only entertained my older girls to get the dog riled up, but I imagine Joe will like it soon enough. The reviews on Amazon convinced me, but I had a gift card and didn't need any more baby stuff! haha<br />Some other things for teething - Hylands Teething Tablets. I can not even begin to tell you how wonderful these have been for my family. They were off the shelf for a few months (big pharm does NOT like homeopathic!), and I guarded my remaining half-bottle like gold. <br />I've heard that those Baltic amber teething necklaces are really helpful too. I've never used one, but my favorite CD shop is about to start stocking them and I think I'm going to pick one up for Joe. http://www.abbyslane.com/Natural-Baltic-Amber-Teething-Necklaces_p_541.htmlAndreahttp://runninganniemm.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604080738678475033.post-90899985723118051232012-03-09T10:51:58.348-05:002012-03-09T10:51:58.348-05:00Teething can start early.

You can put a slightly wet wash cloth in the freezer for a bit for her to chew on. That might bring some relief.

So every time I see you post it, it's a reminder to me to send up a prayer for your mom and friend. <br /><br />Sophie looks cute and a couple of my friends have them for their babies, but my (not yet a mother lol) two cents is that it's that price because it's trendy. I'm betting you could go to Target or Babies R Us and find an inexpensive, bpa free teether.
