Teething help

My son is getting all four first molars and Tylenol and Advil aren't doing much for this. He's been crying a lot yesterday and today. It's breaking my heart. His dr doesn't recommend the teething tablets and he really won't eat. Any tips?

    My son didnt like teething rings and tylenol really didnt help...I myself never tried the tablets...how old is your baby?
    I gave my son a popsicle to chew on, unopened
    Cold baby applesauce
    Ice in his baby cloth or sock and tied it up-let him chew on it
    Rubbing his gums with cold cloth
    Hope I helped some :-/ good luck

    He's 14 months and his appetite sucks right now. I've tried so many cold foods. He will atleast drink milk, juice and water. The oragel seemed to help a little. I'm not sure why they don't recommend them but if they work I'm willing I try them. I hate seeing him in pain.

    He never would use the teething rings but I'm gonna try that again.

    Try to teething tablets. My lo is 15 months and is getting 2 of his bottom molars and is completely miserable!

    So I bought the teething tablets and they did seem to help last night but my son woke up with a rash on his body. So I'm guessing it was from the tablets. My poor little guy. Gonna call the doc and see what I can do.

    Which ones did you buy?

    Ok well it wasn't the tablets. He has the hand foot mouth disease. My poor little guy.
