Nothing is safe from a teething baby's mouth.

A little over a month ago I wrote about a few of Vivi’s favorite things to chew on. A month ago there weren’t any teeth to speak of and the drool and snot were at a minimum. As of today there is one tooth, one ready to pop out and endless amounts of facial liquids. Last night involved tears and sobbing if anything touched her chin and ended with her getting a little nip of Tylenol. During the day she wears her Baltic amber teething necklace and she is far less irritable when she has it on. (Still think it’s hooey? I’m a total believer, I just ordered her another one.)

I’m willing to try anything once, especially when it carries a promise of a less miserable teething baby. Today required a long walk around the neighborhood to soothe her grumpy soul.

Thankfully I’ve found a few new things that have left me with a much more comfortable teething baby, I suggest you stock up on a couple of these before you are staring down a teething baby.

Molar Munchers $12.99
Horrible name, amazing product. Vivi has never taken a pacifier but she'll chew on these oddly named (and oddly shaped) hands free teethers for hours. They get to all of her gums without affecting her tongue.

Here’s 10 unique Baltic amber teething necklaces.

Here’s my other list of Vivi’s favorite things to chew on.

And here’s some really cute photos of my baby,  just because.

I really wanted to get my daughter Sophie but I didn’t realized it squeaked, that might be a deal breaker for me. With 2 dogs in the house, we don’t need any more squeaky toys!! My daughter also loves the Tommee Tippee Chewthers, they look weird but she will chew on them forever!!

You are lucky, you found toys she likes to chew on. My son looves to chew on things which are quite the opposite of chewing toys. What is with babies and key chains?! :-) The strangest thing which kept him happy was a tube of hand cream (empty of course). His chewing toys are used for dropping games as in “let’s see how many times will my mom pick, rinse with hot water and hand me this toy before getting bored completely…”
