Moms, what gel is the most effective in your opinion? I do not want to go empty to keep money.
Veronica, in my experience, the most effective was Helisal gel, he really anesthetles and the child sleeps for a few hours calmly at night. In the afternoon, it was also not particularly without whims, but it's still hard of course during this period, especially without grandmothers. But this is all individually, anyway may have a couple of drugs to buy to understand how much more suitable for you.
Thanks for such a detailed article. I learned a lot of interesting things, I will use your advice.
I also like Holololol. A child tolerates him perfectly, smeared the gum, after a few minutes the caprises pass. Apparently the pain goes away, so calms down. If you smear before bedtime, then there is a chance to sleep with the whole family.
