frozen banana is good (but you have to watch for any chunks that he might knaw off as a potential choking hazard if it’s too frozen) and also just a cold, damp cloth. hope this helps – good luck!
Frozen banana is a great idea! Thank you!
We used to give our guy flax crackers made of flax that was ground up to chew on and a damp cloth put in the freezer for a bit.
I found a recipe for Apricot Flax Teething Biscuits (from Gabriel Cousens Rainbow Live Food):
2 cups flax seeds
1 cup dried apricot
1 cup fresh young coconut water
Mix and dehydrate
Hopefully my little guy likes them (if not I’m sure I will!) ...
Karmyngirl, there are also mesh bags you can place food into (actually designed for kids who have feeding difficulties where there is risk of choking). Your baby could chew on whatever you put into it without risk of having it break into pieces in his mouth. There are several feeding websites out there that sell them, but can’t remember them off hand. I’m pretty sure something will come up if you do a google search. I also believe they have them at “Babies R Us.”
I bought the mesh bags. They’re called Baby Safe Feeder I think. Unfortunately Andrew didn’t particularly care for them. :(
