Teething Pain?

Here at Organic Monkey we have been dealing with teething babies for what seems like months and months! Just when we think it's all over, another tooth pops through and we are back to square one dealing with sore, aching little mouths, constant dribbling and sleepless nights all round. Personally I'm dealing with Dylan crying when I try to feed him, not wanting anything other than a dummy or a bottle of milk in his mouth or him chewing his hands.  There are days when I'm truly worried because he goes off his food, and as a mother all you want is for your baby to be comfortable, safe and well fed. These teething times are so hard on both us mummies and our little ones.

Cheeky Monkey
There are a number of things I've used for Dylan, from ice lollies (all natural of course!) to homeopathic granules all of which help at different times but we felt more could be done so, the Organic Monkey team have spent months formulating a teething oil to help and have now launched our 'Cheeky Monkey Cheek Rub Oil'.  Just rubbing a small amount onto their little cheeks really soothes and offers relief. The arnica oil, well know for allievating aches and pains combined with the healing and calming properties of Lavender and Roman Chamomile works wonders .

Don't just take our word for it, we received this testimonial from another satisfied customer too:

“Just wanted to say how much we love the Cheeky Monkey cheek rub. It really soothes and calms and smells wonderful too. Thank You for making the teething process much more bearable!” (Henrietta, Poppy’s mum)
