Feeding and soothing

My 3 month old is teething, we can see it as well as all the signs, unfortunately she has CMPA and yet to find teething powders she can use, any other soothing suggestions? Using atm calpol but not sure how long we can keep her dosed up on calpol for! Also did anyone who BF find baby wouldn’t latch. When we put finger in mouth she bites down with gums but doesn’t suck, she’s fine with bottle but it will mean exclusively pumping which is new to me and I’m worried she won’t go back to breast after (she can’t have formula as she rejected 4x prescription formulas)

Hey my little one is also the same, 3 months old and teething already 😩I’m also breastfeeding and last night he wouldn’t latch and he was getting frustrated and crying , I can’t see the teeth yet though, he would also bite on my finger and also gave him paracetamol last night first time as he couldn’t settle. I’m also pumping to feed him in the evening as it seems it gets worse for him then ;( I’m giving him teething toys but he’s not a fan really. Hoping for any advice here to make him feel better ❤️‍🩹

@Daria I got my girl teething mittens she can hold and it’s been so helpful! She likes the nuby keys for 5 minutes but same evenings are worse and last night was horrific same with the latch and screaming. We done calpol & nurofen and staggered them 2 hours apart. We’ve order Ashton and press teething gel as it’s lactose free but heard the granules are best. Our girl is rejecting the bottle now 🙄

Theeta from Nelson are very good, with camomile

Oh bless her❤️how is she now ? My mum says this is going to be the case for a while but gets easier with time as they get used to the pain and cope with it better 😵‍💫mittens? Would you pass a link ? And did you use the gel? I’ve heard that they don’t do much so I didn’t use it yet, I have the Ashton brand. Hope your little one feels better and got back to eating? 🥣

@Daria the gel for our lg gave her instant relief. Here’s the mittens, I was dubious at first but she loves them she held one through her nap then feed after 😂😂 https://amzn.eu/d/dlPSt2Z

Thank you so much ❤️so the gel worked ? In that case I’ll also try it if he starts getting upset again , seems like he’s more settled today 💕

How amazing she loves these mittens 💕I’ll give it a go 🙈
