Some moments are definitely worse than others (and I am so very thankful for her amber necklace, which has navigated us through some rough waters) so I started thinking up alternatives to simply medicating to help Penny get some relief. Washcloths soaked in juice and water have been old standbys for many moms, so I thought.. why not yogurt?
You will need:
A wash cloth
Yogurt of choice (we used Pomegranate Greek Gods yogurt)
You will do:
1. Fold the wash cloth into quarters and then diagonally to create a "point"
2. Dip the point into a cup of yogurt. It takes a few times to evenly coat and soak up the yogurt.
3. Place in the freezer for about 30 minutes.
4. Enjoy!
It's short lived, but a healthy treat (even when your baby isn't teething!).
Can you think of any alternatives to water, juice or yogurt?
What a great idea. I'm glad my daughter is past teething, but I'll keep this in mind for baby #2.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like an awesome idea! My son is teething right now (but only just became 6 months so no yogurt yet!) I was thinking about putting a piece o a banana in one of those mesh feeders and letting him chew on that!

ReplyDeleteWe made yogurt coconut milk popsicles, and they were a big hit for the teething crowd :) .
