Drooling

My almost 5 week old has suddenly started drooling all the time. He has spit bubbles coming out of his mouth while he sleeps and leaves wet marks on everyone's shoulders. This just started like 3 days ago, he's not spitting up just drooling. Any ideas why? Not concerned just curious

    Seriously! Growth spurt and teething as a combo will suck. She has been on my boob forever today.

    Mine will be 4 weeks tomorrow and started drooling a couple days ago. I thought teething would be too soon but all afternoon she has wanted her bottle straight out of the fridge, not to drink from but to suck on. So I put a teething toy in the fridge to see if she would like that.. I figured the freezer would be too cold for her at this point.
  • Something also happens with their salivary glands around 2ish months, I believe, and they drool more. It could just be that. I'm not saying it can't be teething but that is really unlikely.





    I'm not new. I just hate The Bump.
