[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 91322, member: 1991"] An alternative to the icy washcloth - get some bananas (really ripe ones, with the skin getting black spots), peel them and cut them in half (across the middle). Then stick a paddlepop stick (popsicle? whatever you call them) in the cut end and put them in the deep freeze. If your freezer is frost-free, put the bananas in an air-tight container in the freezer. Then give one to the baby. These do not drip; big pieces cannot break of or get bitten off; she just :censored: it and enjoys the flavour as well as the cold on her gums. These are good for big people too. Just watch her with the stick... Or if you have those plastic sticks to make your own ice blocks, then use those to make these frozen bananas. As I mentioned, these are best with slightly over-ripe bananas - not so ripe that they are turning brown inside the skin, you still want them yellow inside, but the riper they are the sweeter they are. Once they thaw they are only good for smoothie, a banana cake or the compost. These work better than chilled teething rings. Marg [/QUOTE]
