My 16 month old is getting a couple of molars in and she's in a lot of pain. My older girls never had any symptoms when they got teeth, but my youngest is miserable :(. I'm giving her ice chips, which she seems to love and Motrin as prescribed by the doc. Is there anything else you've tried that may help decrease some of her discomfort?

I give Logan smoothies and ice pops when his teething gets really bad. They also make a teething tablet that is all natural and works wonders, most drug stores carry them. she may enjoy chewing on a cold wet wash cloth also

Teething necklace!!! You can buy them on line they are made of amber. THey are meant to be worn not chewed on but they helped my dd a lot. And maybe it was coincedence but.... eh fevers stoped and she just drooled

Also used to buy frozen frui and those mesh bag things for infants and let her chew on frozen fruit
