Teething Toys For Babies - The Only solution That Worked For a slight Angel

Our miniature princess Michelle was a chirpy and happy baby. We felt blessed because she would only cry on rare occasions, slept straight through the night with miniature fuss, and was a lot of fun to have around. This lasted for the first 6 months of her life. Then came one of agonizing stages in a baby's life - teething. Our miniature angel was enduringly sobbing, a miniature cranky and widespread just miserable. After seeking guidance from our family/friends and of procedure researching the internet we tried all under the sun to supplier her some relief from the teething woes.

We found that teether toys provided Michelle the most relief. Not just any teething toy mind you. She had a popular - Sophie the giraffe. Sophie is by all means; of course the most popular teething toy since the 1960s. Her success is unsurpassed in millions of these natural rubber teethers being sold around the world.

Our two main prerequisites for a teething toy were security and effectiveness. This teether is made of natural rubber and uses food-grade paint. After hearing all the horror stories of lead-based paint being used in toys we swore off all toys made in China. This teether is handcrafted in the Swiss Alps by Vulli. They make some other cute teethers too but Michelle didnt enjoy any of the others as much as Sophie.

The teether measures 1x4x7 inches and is lighter than 5 ounces. One of the nice features is that Sophie is designed to motion to all your baby's senses. The contrasting brown and white colors, the flat texture with a soft touch all the way to the polite squeaking sound. Another neat highlight was that this teether was soft sufficient for the baby to yield the squeaking noise by gradually squeezing any part of the giraffe's body. Sophie has a long neck which provides a comfortable grip for your baby's small hands.

We wanted a teether that was soft but firm enough. If you have ever seen what soft toys look like after they have been chewed upon, you know what I mean. In Sophie's case, the body is soft but also firm sufficient on the feet and the head for your teething baby to gnaw on for relief. An unexpected surprise was the durability of this teether. It lasted the whole teething phase and Michelle enjoyed playing with it for a few months after her teething woes had ended.
