Baby Orajel

My baby is teething.As all you parents out there know it is a complete nightmare.I love her so much, but her cries of constant pain make me want to cry.

I bought the baby orajel to try and soothe her.It is in a tube, which I really don't like, but it is about the product not the packaging, right?You squirt a little on your figer and put it on the area the tooth is going to poke through.This has proven quite the difficult task.Trying to get the mouth of a teething baby open is not easy.

It is supposed to work immediately unlike the oral medications.It does not.I do notice that my child has stopped crying uncontrollably after about five minutes, but I don't know if it is the orajel, or she is just cried out at this point?

I will continue to use the orajel through the teething process, even if I am not sure that is what is easing her pain.Better safe then sorry in my book.
