Jacob liked to chew on whatever he could, so we always had plenty of teething toys about the place, or toys that had a bit of give in them and that were kind of rubbery, yet firm.

Jacob didn't like ice cold things....he spits things that cold out of his mouth, so teething rings in the fridge/freezer, ice cold water etc etc were never options.

Bonjela also didn't work.

So I guess the only things we have found tha thave helped have been plenty of things to chew on, and definitely panadol, plus having foods that he can really chew into, like the crusts on bread etc.
