Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.
My son had a really hard time with teething. The pain would cause him to wake up crying almost every night for a year straight. Some nights the pain was so bad that he was inconsolable.
One night he was having a particularly hard time and screamed for over an hour. I applied the Peace And Calming oil blend on my neck as I held and rocked him. He began to calm down immediately.
We started putting 1-2 drops of the Peace & Calming blend on his pillow at night as well as applying Lavender to the bottoms of his feet before bedtime. He started sleeping through the night! We have started using this oil in our infant daughter's crib now that she has a tooth coming in and have experienced the same results.
On a related note, our son always broke out with a really bad diaper rash when a tooth would come in. Young Living diaper rash ointment worked better than anything else I tried.
