Have you introduced any new foods lately? If so it could be a sign of an allergy or intolerance. It you still think it is teething you can try a baltic amber necklace. Personally when Orion wakes up in pain I do a few things, I nurse him a little if he will nurse while rubbing the soles of his feet (There is a accupressure point there for stomach problems) Then if that dosen't do it, I will give him some Camillia to help with the pain from teething. I aso check his diaper and tell him I understand he is hurting. I would be very wary rubbing teething gel on him then sending him back to bed, as in some rare cases it can cause breathing problems
Benzocaine Topical Products: Sprays, Gels and Liquids - Risk of Methemoglobinemia Hylands brand is safe though, they also make teething tablets that can help. I do reccomend Camillia though, I find it is a very good mixture.
