My wife took our beautiful 9 month old little man to his scheduled doctor appointment this morning for his check up. The doc checked him over said that he's looking great. She said that his top teeth are about to pop through any day now which is great for him, but I'll certainly miss his gummy little smile!
Well, it was brought up that we have been giving our little man Hylands Teething Tablets and the doctor told us to stop giving those to him immediately. She told us that those were extremely bad and can affect a child's central nervous system. Steph told the doctor that they are "all natural" and the doctors response was "so is alcohol but you don't give that to your baby". Good point.
~BUT~
Doing our own research, my wife and I are finding mixed reviews on whether they are definitely bad for a child or if it's just hype. So I ask you for your opinion. What do you feel about these "all natural" product and what successes or failures have you found with them? We are in search of whether we should continue giving these to our baby or not. I realize that doctors may not necessarily be nutritionists so they may only have knowledge through hearsay and not specifically through independent research, so we are wanting to get to the bottom of this.
