#Teething

As teeth push through the gums, they trigger pressure and inflammation, which is why babies get fussy, chew on everything, and have swollen gums. What helps: • Chilled teething rings (not frozen) – reduce inflammation and numb the area • Cold, damp washcloths – simple and effective • Firm silicone teethers – biting provides counter-pressure that can reduce pain • Gentle gum massage – short-term relief • Pain medication (when needed) Infant acetaminophen can be used for more significant discomfort (especially before sleep). For babies over 6 months, ibuprofen is another option. Always use weight-based dosing and your pediatrician’s guidance. Remember that kids teeth for a few years and we don’t want to use medication all of the time. What to avoid: • Numbing gels (can be unsafe if swallowed) • Amber necklaces (choking/strangulation risk) • Frozen teethers (can damage gums) Teething is uncomfortable—but it’s temporary and manageable with the right approach. . . . . #teething #pediatrics #babydevelopment NYC pediatrician Brooklyn pediatrician

Bringing this one back- it’s a good one! Did you know that pineapple decreases inflammation? THATS RIGHT! 🍍Pineapple is known to contain bromelain, an enzyme that helps your skin and tissues heal, as well as aid in pain and swelling. For babies, use the core of the pineapple, cut it in “sticks” and keep it in the refrigerator. When you feel like your baby has any discomfort from teething, give it to them- it’s easy for them to hold onto and gnaw on! Better than a silicone ring or any toy you will buy and actually has benefits! It can also improve digestion and help with constipation especially important in babies who are just starting solids!

Teething Tip: Celery! ✔️ At 6 months you can offer baby a whole stalk of raw celery as a food teether and as a dipper for other soft, scoopable foods! Munching on the stalk strengthens the jaw, helps the tongue learn to move food to the side of the mouth for chewing, and helps baby “map” the inside of the mouth. 🧊Freezing the celery stalk can minimize choking risk as the stalk becomes firmer when frozen, then naturally softens as baby munches. This can also help sooth sore gums from teething. ⚠️ For babies with teeth and a strong jaw, it is possible for them to bite off a piece of celery. If this happens, give baby a moment to spit out the food on their own and keep your fingers out of baby’s mouth. Kneeling down in front of baby so they are looking down at you can allow gravity to help the food come forward in the mouth. Want to learn more?
