Any suggestions for teething gel or other relief? How do the tablets work? I've heard all kinds of things about not to use orajel at daycare, hylands tabs recalls, etc.
Right now we have tried Orajel natural and she hates the taste but I think it may help some.

I didn't use any tablets or gels for LO. She's got 5 molars coming in right now, but is handling it really well.
I do freeze fruit and give it to her though. She loves it! And I think it helps with the sprouting teeth.

We are also avoiding the gels and tablets at our pediatrician's recommendation. We also use a lot of frozen fruit and teethers. My favorite are the mesh teethers that you can put frozen fruit inside.

We use the Orajel Natural tablets too. We dissolve them in water and give it to DS using a syringe dispenser. DS doesn't have any issues taking them this way. We've also used Little Teethers Gel and baby orajel. Our pediatrician okayed it but we only use it when we absolutely have to..usually in the middle of the night when we've exhausted all other options. Tylenol is also an option if your LO is having a really hard time.
