Teething tip #4 - teething swabs
Wonderful, wonderful inventions! Those Baby Orajel teething swabs numb up his gums, I can stick that swab all the way back to where it is needed without getting holes in my fingers from his sharp little teeth. For the first few teeth, the regular baby orajel worked fine, but after that, it’s nearly impossible to avoid being bitten. If you have a ton of baby orajel and want to use it up, stick it on the end of a q-tip and stick it in there, has the same effect (just don’t put too much on, a glob can fall off onto their tongue and you’ll hear strange sounds and lots of tongue-grabbing until it wears off
).
Of course, you’ll want to keep these up high, as Lil’ Duck discovered them one day and took great delight in cracking them all open, then stuffing them inside my VCR (the q-tip dispenser of late, since he formerly placed an entire box of regular q-tips inside that same VCR).
