The chapped cheeks are probably a result of a bit of wind burn from being outside. I think teething just causes rosy cheeks, not so much chapped. My daughter gets chapped cheeks from being outside too. I use Nivea cream on her cheeks before we go out, and again before bedtime. It is a good one to use because it's pretty thick and really protects her little face.

I would say from being outside--I never heard teething causing your cheeks to turn red. My ds used to get chapped cheeks all the time when he was a baby. I put a little vasoline on his cheeks when we would go outside and it really seemed to work!!!

Teething can cause their cheeks to turn red - it did for both of my kids. But the "chapped" description - probably not teething. Are they sort of dry and scaly? That's more what I would describe as chapped. My kids get that too, and Aquaphor works wonders!

my dd had really bad chapped cheeks... i just used the normal johnson's and johnson's baby lotion (in the pink bottle) that worked wonders!

I use Johnson's Soothing Naturals Soothe & Protect Balm on dd's cheeks it is great and is only $4.

Vaseline is good for chapped cheeks too, especially as a barrier when you go out to prevent it. It's kind of thick and greasy so I wouldn't use it if you're going out in public, but it's great otherwise.....and cheap, too.

vaseline ! vaseline ! vaseline ! Its really cheap, and a little bit goes a long way. You apply it once in the morning and you should not have to do it the rest of the day !
