Igive him the teething pills, but he still seems fussy. He wakes up like every 2hrs so I get no sleep :(. What might help with this?

 Motrin, oragel, and frozen washcloths.  You can also try teething feeders.  Those are great.

Those teething tabets aren't worth a crap.  They used to work really well but the FDA recalled them in 2010 because some babies were getting belladonna poisoning.  They reformulated them and now they don't work at all.  Don't waste your money.

They still have belladonna in them. Is it maybe a lower amount? All my friends had kids way before me and they swore by teething tablets. They don't do shit for my son, maybe that's why.

I use the night time oragel it has a higher percent of the numbing stuff in it. It helped alot. Also try a Amber teething necklace those things work wonders.

Yep my daughter got 2 teeth the same day at 3 months exactly. The necklace was the only thing that helped. She wore it again when she fell and damaged her tooth. 1 month of antibiotics and dentist appointments trying to save it from the infection that was eating away the root. She was miserable without the necklace.

DD is 3 months and I do believe she is teething now also! Where can I get that necklace? Drug store? Walmart?

I would stay away from orajel because he's still young enough that it could numb his gag reflex (if he spits up he could choke because his gag could be numbed). I loved the razbaby teethers (check walmart.com)
