Oh those fun teething stages.... you didn't mention how old she is, but I'm guessing around 5-6 months? She will grow out of it! My boys ate everything at that age! They were gated into the kitchen when I couldn't supervise, I wish I knew about Xpens back then. It would have saved my kitchen molding, cabinets & walls, which they destroyed.. along with their beds, harnesses, leashes, my shoes, socks, pants, bras, underwear, laptop cord & keyboard (), legs on furniture, chapticks, peepads, tupperware... the list goes on & on.

Put her in an Xpen when you are not watching her. So she can't get to your cabinets, walls & molding at least. I bought cheap beds and toys for those months, and learned to shut my closet doors and blame myself when they chewed up something. Bully sticks came in handy to focus them on something they were allowed to chew.

My boys are 8 years old now and every once in awhile, they go on a tear and chew up DH's socks or underwear, or my pants or rummage through the trash for tissues and such! Gross!!! But they have gotten much much better!
