Just thought I'd let you in on a tip that has worked well for us.

Ds used to crack it when we tried to put bonjela on his gums, so we just put it on a dummy now. He happily sucks away, gets the bonjela in his mouth AND is quiet! Yay.

An even better option is the "Gummy" its a little bit of rubber for them to munch down on & is a great applicator for bonjella as it hits the spot immediately !!!

I wish MJ would take either one of those. The only thing she will willingly put in her mouth is my boob & i'm not putting bonjella on that :no:

Plus it may also help numb the booby so that when MJ bites you dont feel it, quick lather it on :laughing: :laughing:

When DS was little, I wanted to give him some Weleda colic powder and it said to put it straight in his mouth:confused: . Not quite sure how a newborn would handle that, so I put it on my nipple ans let him suck it off there! Worked a treat and he didn't flinch at the taste at all.:thumbsup:
