Teething?

my baby seems to be teething...she started clamping down while breast feeding the other day, pulling on her ear and cheek, eating her fist, fussy as hell and a drooly mess. Anyone else? I feel like this is way to early to be starting this. Calling the pediatrician tomorrow, even though
We were just there for the 2 month, I didn't even think to talk about this.

Re: Teething?

  • My son is 10 weeks old and his first bottom tooth just came in. Same symptoms you described. I took him to the pediatrician, the pediatrician said noooo he is too young to be teething. Wait until 6 months for a tooth to come in. Cannot wait to go back in a few weeks and show the doctor there is a tooth :-)

    Your LO may definitely be teething. Get some baby orajel and some teething toys.
  • My dd started at about 10 weeks but never actually cut her first tooth until about 7 months old. She would cut at least 2 teeth at once. We are currently working on all 4 canines at the same time and she is 19 months. My DS is almost 8 weeks and he is showing signs of teething. He is showing same signs as you described and that is exactly what my DD did. She was miserable and I tried everything. I gave in to my SIL and tried the Amber teething necklace. I will say my husband and I laughed at the thought of it helping. Well we are both firm believers in it now and to this day will not take it off her. I just ordered my DS one and my DD a new one because they do need to be replaced and I try to replace hers every 8 months.
