We’ve tried a few off the shelf teethers with varying success, but Reuben immediately took to this one. Teething has got to be one of the most challenging & disruptive parts of raising a baby!! Lots of my mummy friends have reported upset tummies, bad chests & high temps when a new chomper is making an appearance… we seem to have escaped these symptoms but it does wreak havoc on mealtimes & sleep for us so finding a good teether is high up on my priorities!

100% would recommend this teether to new mums!
