I've had 5 children go through teething and have used about a half dozen remedies to treat it, depending on the specific symptoms.

There are a lot of possibilities that can be solved by changes in how the mother goes about things... or maybe by homeopathy - but you need to find out more about the situation. If it's a simple nursing strike, skin-to-skin time with the child, nursing when the child is drowsy, either almost asleep ...

Here is some information about vitamin D, human milk, and infant health. http://www.llli.org/NB/NBJulAug04p124.html http://www.llli.org/FAQ/vitamin.html -- } Serenity Attached mama to Cymbre 4/16/01 and Eli 1/19/03 and Allegra 6/23/05 and Shiloh 8/14/0...
