Calpol - teething baby

Can i give my 3 month old calpol for teething?... shes been so bad today and ive just been given her dentinox gel which has really soothed her gums and now before her night feed we have given ashtons powder but she is really upset with it and cant calm her so would anyone recommend calpol? Please help

Thank u for replies... the gel usally works better really but the Ashton powder does work but tonight she was really bad and as soon as i gave her the powder she did settle down a bit and then exploded in her nappy?...which is strange because i thought the powder is ment to calm stomach ache? then once we changed her she was just chewing and sucking at her hands, so i massage her gums with this massage stick for teething which she loved! tried to give her bottle but she just screamed... eventually she managed to drink 5oz (with a fight) but i gave her the calpol it took a while to kick in but she went down at 8pm and is fast asleep now! Im dreading when the teeth actually break through because thats even worse isnt it? I think it might be a combination of wind and teething... her wind seems to be bad again! even though we use dentinox and dr.brown bottles

Hope u ladies and babies/toddlers are well xxx

Awww poor thing

I have the Calpol sachets and they are from 2 months. I think if she's that upset I'd def give her some, poor sweetie, it must be horrid x x x

Calpol

Hi, Just looked at my calpol box and it does say from 2-3 months, just follow the instructions. I am surprised that the Ashtons did not work but I guess it does not work for everyone.

Poor Rosie, give her a little calpol and see how she gets on.

Good Luck!
