You do what you can control and then relax. Babies also fuss when they are frustrated and not necessarily only for pain. If you want to try some Ibuprofen every 8 hours as a pain reliever it may help, but beyond that it sounds like you've done what you can. You need to accept that baby will occasionally ask more than you have to give and that is okay. You are still a good mom.

Try breast feeding or massaging gums with firm finger pressure. Ask doctor if ibuprofen or acetaminophen is recommended. Don't use OTC meds.
