Can I give my baby a frozen washcloth when she's teething?

Yes. The thick fabric feels good, and the icy cold numbs sore gums. A teething toy that's been chilled in the refrigerator also works, but frozen toys may be too harsh on an infant's sensitive gums. Leave one end dry so she can get a good grip.
