It was a quiet evening at home, but tonight was different. The baby monitor softly buzzed as you and your husband Simon tried to comfort your teething little one.

Your baby, just five months old, had been fussy all day. Her tiny face was red with discomfort, and her cries seemed endless. Simon had tried rocking her earlier, but the teething pain wouldn’t ease.

Sitting on the couch, you held the baby’s favorite teething ring. Simon joined you, looking both tired and concerned. “I’ve tried everything,” you said, frustrated. “She just won’t settle.”

Simon took the teething ring from you. “Let me try.” He gently placed it in your baby’s tiny hands. “We’ll get through this,” he said with a reassuring smile.
