Mum's 'awesome' £1 teething pain relief trick for babies goes down a treat with parents

Every parent knows when their baby's teeth are giving them trouble.

There are the bright red cheeks, the excessive drool, disturbed sleep and grizzly moods. It's unpleasant for baby - and sometimes the rest of the family.

To counter the discomfort a baby feels when cutting a tooth, there are a wealth of products available, but one mum's homemade solution has proven to be particularly popular recently, the Manchester Evening News reports.

The best part? It costs just £1...

Sharing the brilliant trick on The Parent Pack Facebook group, the anonymous mum added a photo of her squeezing Ella's Kitchen puree on to greaseproof paper on a baking tray.

The mum had created a variety of shapes, including stars and rings.

"Squeeze yummy baby pouches onto greaseproof paper on a tray and pop in the freezer for fun, frozen, yummy teethers.

"So soothing on baby gums".

You get bang for your buck with one of these pouches.

According to the MEN, a £1 pouch can create around 25 different teething shapes for your baby.

Mums were quick to praise the idea, with one saying: "Brilliant idea, great for the little one when he wants one of our ice lollies"

Another convert added: "Such a good idea, even for a snack on warm days."

Definitely sounds worth a try!
