I enjoy finding new blogs, and I have never heard about the powers of clove oil- it's certainly something I'll look into!asecurebasenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1439620035416456778.post-44215175191250649092012-06-26T09:09:42.993-07:002012-06-26T09:09:42.993-07:00Interesting information, as usual!

This mom had some good sources for info on teething necklaces (in the comments), but they were all print sources so I was unable to check them out myself: http://parentingwithresearch.blogspot.com/2011/04/teething-necklaces.html We have used an amber necklace, and course it's hard to say for sure that it's working, since I have no idea what the teething experience would have been without it, but Annabelle has had a fairly easy time and all her teeth, save for the last set of molars, are in.<br /><br />We also used frozen fruit (strawberries, peach slices, etc) to gnaw on for soothing, and when it got especially rough I mixed a couple of drops of clove oil with olive oil and massaged that onto her gums. Clove oil is a great natural numbing agent, but needs to be diluted.Melissanoreply@blogger.com
