Babies: 0 - 3 Months

11 week Old baby(Problem)

Okay So my DS is 11 weeks old as I specified on the title and He's been drooling like so much. Of course we ruled out teething since day one lol, but I'm wondering if that has happened to anyone else, or if they know what it is or what to do about it.. Any info is greatly appreciated:)

Re: 11 week Old baby(Problem)

  • Liam is 12 weeks and drools like crazy, I think that's common at this age, once their salivary glands have kicked in. I wouldn't classify this as a 'problem', as it's not doing any damage to anyone. Babies just don't know that it's socially acceptable to swallow their spit ;)

    If you're super concerned, give your doc a call =)

  • Thank you so much, I don't feel so concerned anymore. I just wanted to know if it was happening to anyone else.. He soaks his clothes, bibs everything that's why I was a  little concerned:)
  • I was actually going to post the same question since my little guy is drooling too.  I thought maybe there was something wrong.  He is right at the same age as yours.  Good to know it's normal
  • Makes you feel a lot better doesn't it :)
  • My DS is almost 9 weeks old and has also been drooling alot lately. He's also been blowing a lot more spit bubbles...

  • Yeah Matthew has been the same way for quite some time now,,
  • Awww   he's so cute thought when he blows bubbles
  • Yeah I'm not gonna deny that lol;;

     

  • DS started drooling at 9 or 10 weeks. It's what babies do.

  • Kylie will be 11 weeks on Wednesday and man is she a drooler!  I took her in for an unrelated issue on Tuesday last week and the doctor commented that she had entered her drooling phase and it was completely normal for her to be that drooly...
