[YEA] Alexia from Onondaga, MI writes: "I strung up a necklace of whole allspice beads for my 4-month-old... he wears them all the time. It stopped the high fevers, fussiness, and most of the teething pain. It also tightened his gums right up so the teeth could just pop through."

[YEA] 06/04/2006: Jack from Toledo, OH writes: "WHENEVER A BABY IN OUR FAMILY STARTED TEETHING, MY GRANDMOTHER WOULD GET A SMALL LENGTH OF "YELLOW ROOT" AND CUT IT INTO 1/4 TO 1/2 INCH CHUNKS AND MAKE A SMALL NECKLACE. SHE WOULD MAKE THEM STONG ENOUGH SO THAT THE CHILD COULD NOT BREAK IT AND PLACED IT AROUND THE BABY'S NECK AND ALL DURING TEETHING PERIODS. THE CHILDREN NEVER HAD SWELLING OR PAIN FROM THE TEETHING!!
THIS IS OR WAS USED EXTENSIVELY IN EDGAR CAYCE'S WORK AND THE NATIVE AMERICAN INDIANS USED IT FOR CHILD BIRTHING TO HELP THE MOTHER. MORE CAN BE FOUND AT EDGAR CAYCE'S HERBALS USE'S... GOD BLESS...."
09/30/2008: Heidi from Monson, Massachusetts replies: "Hello~ What exactly is "yellow root"? Is it another name for Gold Fennel? Is it another name for Yellow Dock Root? I couldn't find "yellow root" specifically online..... I looked. I would VERY much like to try this approach for my 10 month old baby girl. She is having a VERY bad time with teething right now! :( Please let me know,and I will make a necklace of it ASAP for her! Thanks SO much! :)"
EC: Edgar Cayce remedies refer to "Yellow Dock Root". However, "Since no safe dosage has been established, pregnant or breastfeeding women and infants and children under the age of six should avoid the use of yellow dock." http://www.answers.com/topic/yellow-dock-1. We'll email Jack for more information...
10/02/2008: Kate from Jackson, Ohio replies: "Response to Heidi: My father calls Goldenseal Yellow Root, which is a different herb from Yellow Dock. Not sure I'd recommend a baby chewing on either, but when dry, Goldenseal is so hard, it may not get very much by chewing on it. It tastes awful, tho. It has been used many times for canker sores. I just wanted to point out that again many herbs have overlaping or similar common names and care needs to be taken to find out which herb is really being suggested."
10/16/2008: Jack replies: "IT WASN'T "YELLOW DOCK" SHE USED DEAR, I'LL TRY TO FIND YOU MORE INFO ON IT, AND ONE MORE THING. PLS LOOK OVER THIS LINK IT HAS A 95% CURE RATE DEE! WWW.HEALINGCANCERNATURALLY.COM/MMS-CHLORINE-DIOXIDE-TREATMENT.HTML..

[QUESTION] 01/22/2009: Jill from Grand Blanc, MI replies: "where do i find yellow root? what about the eldridge roots?"
03/09/2009: Amanda from Houston, Texas replies: "I was wondering if anyone found anything about what exactly this root is called and where it can be found? My mother-in-law was telling me about how her father used to make a teething necklace from a root for her boys when they were babies. She said her father called it a "swamp lilly root" but of course I can find nothing on it she said it grew in the swamp behind her house but she would have to know the exact name and what it looked like to find it. I have a 4 1/2 month old who is teething like no other and any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you"
04/15/2009: Amanda from Madison, TN replies: "common mullein is what i use on all the children brought to me or allspice works wonders both made into necklaces were the best way"
[WARNING!] 04/16/2009: T from Maryland, USA replies: "Putting a cord around a baby's neck is DANGEROUS. They sell a type of pacifier with a mesh pouch on the end for inserting things like frozen fruit for a baby to safely mouth on when teething. Google "baby safe feeder". You'd be much better off putting your remedy into one of those than stringing it on a cord which could cause strangulation. And please research THOROUGHLY any remedy you might try on an infant."
