Teething?

We think that Miss Madison is teething. She's showing all the signs...drooling, chomping on her hand, cranky, restfulness, and not eating as well. The past few nights she's been really crying a lot. This is a baby that NEVER cries. Even daycare told me that her cries are more like a whine. So, when she would just wail for 5 or 10 minutes, we became a little concerned. I asked a co-worker of mine that has a child that is 18 months what the signs were. She told me everything that Madison is doing. We tried to freeze the corner of a washcloth and give it to her, but she didn't like it at all. She kept pushing it away. She really, really hates anything cold, so I didn't know if she would like it or not. So far, she seems to like my finger the best. We tried that tonight, and she seemed content. My co-worker also told me to go to Wal-Mart and get some teething tablets. She said that everyone she knows uses them, and they seem to work well. So, I guess we will get those. Does anyone else have any suggestions? I just hate to see my happy, smiling baby upset. Any suggestions are welcomed!!
