I quickly found the Happy Bunny Day- Bandana Drool Bib Tutorial on Dirty Diaper Laundry - it seemed easy and totally do-able. I used the tutorial as a base for my drool bandanas, but with a few tweaks. Velcro irritates the boys eczema, so I used snaps - the boy gets a rash on his chest, so I added a water-resistant layer in the middle and made the bottom layer minkee soft, oh and did I mention they're reversible too?! The boy was about 6 months when I started making them and other momma's wanted to try them too, so I made a bunch and sold them. I still have some left, and a few that are still unfinished if I'm being totally honest.
All that aside, now that the boy is teething his one year molars, the drool is back with a vengeance and the drool bandanas are back too. In celebration of reaching 25 followers, I decided to host my own first giveaway.

I always gave them a frozen/cold teething ring which helped them "feel" better

ReplyDeleteFor my little one, I find that using the angel baby first toothbrush (made out of 100% silicone) works really well by dipping it in cold water and giving it to him to bite.
ReplyDeleteMy baby loves to chew on frozen asperagus spears (I got the big ones on a great sale and just tossed them in the freezer). Not only does he have something cold for his teeth, but he gets used to an unusal (but healthy) food flavor too!
