NBD but This Mom's Cheap, Easy Pacifier Hack Is a Teething "Life-Saver"

As painful as teething is for babies, it's equally as frustrating for parents. A call to the pediatrician will leave you with little more than a "stay strong, mama!" and a run to the nearest baby store will leave you with $50 worth of wooden teethers, silicone teethers, and edible teethers — none of which work in the slightest.

So, although there's no promises that this ingenious method will work with your baby, it's worth a shot based on the sheer fact that you probably already have it at home.

Emilia Jackson shared her hack on Facebook, and all it required was one of those Philips Avent "soothies" that cost $3 for a pack of two (although you likely snagged one from the hospital or got one as a free gift for registering at Babies 'R' Us — most moms end up with a dozen of these in their diaper bags without an educated guess as to how they acquired them) and a little bit of water.

"If your babies are teething, mamas, put water in your soothie, and then put it in the freezer for a couple hours," she wrote. "Seriously a life-saver for teething. He was so content with his cold binky."

If you are worried that a baby could drink the water, fear not: "There is no hole in this binky, and absolutely no way for the baby to get the water."
