[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 94275, member: 1233"] With my 2 oldest the only thing that we COULD use was whiskey on the gums. They broke out in huge painful lumps with the teething gel. doctor told us whiskey was the only thing to try. We used brandy on difficult child when the ear pain got to bad and the docs were no help. Usually his pain was worst about a day BEFORE the docs would say he was infected. therapist thinks this is part of his problem, that he had so many ear infections that were so painful before they got treatment. But he got what we could, and with some food in his tummy a tsp of brandy did the trick. He could sleep for a few hours then. Jess got brandy one time for gas pains. Nothing else worked, but it was what my great aunt always recommended, and my parents too. So I let gma give her a spoonful of brandy. She HATES the stuff! To this day she remembers it burning and will not go NEAR any alcohol. Not the reaction I expected, but hey, it works for me!!! Susie [/QUOTE]
