I used to wet a towel from one edge and chill it and then give it to my baby to chew on. I saw he preferred that over the teething rings.

My little one would never hold a teething ring because it would be too cold for his liking. What he did love is when I would use my index finger to rub his gums! I could rub his gums for atleast an hour while we sit and watch tv!

Try wetting a washcloth and putting it in the freezer for a few minutes, that will soothe her gums. Also, there are mesh feeders you can use to put in frozen chunks of fruit- melon and banana work really well. Another idea is to just rub her gums with your finger.

We did all those things when are kids were teething too. You can also try keeping a washcloth in the freezer or even just run it over cold water.
