How to soothe your baby’s sore gums from teething
“Some of the more common signs of teething are restlessness, increased saliva, and constantly putting their hands – or really anything – in their mouths,” says Dr. Malhotra. If you think your child is teething, you can massage their small gums or give them something cold to “chew on” to help ease the pain. Another great remedy is that of Mommy Bliss Baby gum massage gel, which uses USDA-certified organic chamomile and vanilla to soothe a baby’s tender gums. It is safe to give to babies 2 months of age and older and does not contain benzocaine or alcohol. Dr Malhotra also points out that fever is usually not a symptom of teething. “If your baby is fussy and has a fever, it could be a sign of illness or infection. It is best to check with your pediatrician.
How to relieve your baby’s constipation
“If your child has poo that comes out in hard balls or if your child is uncomfortable and struggling to poop, these are signs that your toddler may be constipated,” says Dr Malhotra . Constipation can be caused by switching from breast milk to formula, the mother’s diet in a nursing baby, or even an intolerance to milk proteins. Since the newborn’s digestive system is still developing, probiotics such as Mommy’s Bliss Probiotic Drops can help by adding beneficial bacterial flora to the gut. For babies 6 months and older, Mommy’s Bliss offers Ease of constipation made with ingredients like prune juice to help shake things up again.
As a new parent, it is often so difficult to know if your baby is doing well, which is why it is important to have the right the best quality essentials at home. However, it’s also important to remember that you have good parenting instincts and are your child’s best advocate. So if something is wrong it probably isn’t and you should call your pediatrician.
