Tylenol (acetaminophen): I would give your baby tylenol (acetaminophen) (baby) which should help with discomfort and will make him more receptive to food/drink. It should not last for too long.

Wetting diapers ??: If baby is wetting a diaper at least every 6 hours, baby is not dehydrated. Sometimes chilled applesauce(95% water) or juice is another way to get more fluids in during teething.
