Momma try getting a finger brush instead. Give him a chance to try that. Night's give him the brush and ask him to try holding n doing. My Lil one does the same .. but now she wants to hold the brush and do it herself!

brush along with ur baby, this helps in reducing the anxiety in the baby.try singing rhymes n make it a fun activity !!

I had same prob with my son of 1.9 yrs but then I stopped using brush and used my finger instead. now he doesn't cry for brushing..... am not sure if brushing with finger will help protect tooth.
