My little guy's been miserable lately, so I grabbed one of those cold gel teething rings from the store. Seems to help a bit, but he's still pretty cranky. Curious if others found these helpful or just meh...?
We tried one of those rings too, and honestly it was hit or miss with our daughter. Sometimes she seemed soothed by the cold, other times she'd toss it aside after a minute. What ended up working better for us was gently massaging her gums with a clean finger—seemed to relieve the pressure more consistently. Every kid's different though...might just need some trial and error to find the best solution.

Haha, sounds exactly like my son. We ended up ditching the rings altogether—he preferred chewing on a damp washcloth. Whatever works, right? Hang in there...teething doesn't last forever (thank goodness).
