This mum’s ‘milksicle’ hack is a total GAME-CHANGER for teething babies

Trine Jensen-Burke

There's a very logical reason as to why teething can be worse for kids at night

Teething can be a real torture.

To babies, of course, as they are the ones going through it, but, dare we say, almost even more so to us parents, who have to suffer the constant crying, the fever, the sleepless nights, the pacing the floor etc. If you have lived through a baby teething, you will more than likely know what the heck we are on about.

But hang on in there, mums (and dads!), it gets better, we promise.

In the meantime, this pretty genius hack from Ohio-based mum Tasia Blackwell might ease your (and your baby’s!) pain a little.

Say hello to the ‘milksicle’ a popsicle made of breast milk – that will not only cool those sore gums when you baby nibbles on it, of course, but is also all sorts of good for him too.

Hello, milksicles, buh-buy cranky babies!

Now, if this doesn’t want to put your breastmilk on ice, we don’t know what will!
