My little guy is teething so I've been giving him Tylenol once sometimes twice a day to help. My mom scared me/made me feel guilty about giving Tylenol because she told me of you give it to often it can kill a baby. Am I giving to often??

Be careful they don't recommend giving Tylenol. I used a baby cloth wet with cold water one end & the other end dry. Worked for my son.

He chewed on it like crazy. But it worked.

@rasul.nadine, I've tried stuff like that but he doesn't seem to want it. I've tried holding it for him and he doesn't want anything to do with it. I've also tried the camellia teething stuff and no luck. He screams to the point he can't catch his breath and nothing o do calms him. I feel so bad for him because he's so upset

I would stay away from medication unless really needed. Teething toys, wetcloth etc

@pnutbutta, he won't take them. He gets so upset to the point he can't catch his breath and nothing I do seems to calm him. It's going on 5 days of this and I'm worn out.

That is too often, Tylenol isn’t good for you. Motrin is better, but can’t be used until 6 Months. I’d just try to stick through it

Pretty sure you could try baby oragel. Other wise teething toys or a cold wash cloth could help some. It’s tough a i know, and as moms we just wanna make our babies feel better, but those medicines are really only for when absolutely necessary, like fever or illness is involved. Hope your LO starts feeling better soon!

I don’t see anything wrong with giving medicine if your child is in pain! Just do the recommendation and you will be fine and he will feel way better
