As a parent to a teething baby, it can be difficult to think straight. 

A baby who is growing teeth can be anything but a happy baby. Naturally, that means that you would want to try anything you can to help ease their gums and help them feel more at peace. 

A mom to twins recently shared a hack that she found worked well for her babies. 

In a short clip, mom, Tene, showed her twin babies chewing or should we say gnawing at spring onions. 

They seem quite calm and relaxed, with the onions having a soothing effect on their gums. 

Mom says that onions are a great solution for teething babies. Over and above their teething benefits, onions are also a great source of nutrients for babies. 

“Onions can be safely given to babies as they begin solid foods, starting around 6 months old,” confirms pediatric dietitian Grace Shea, MS, RDN, CSP." (Healthline)
