Signs of teething

What symptoms of teething did your DC display?  Did it last long before his/her first tooth broke through?  We're starting to wonder if Natalie is starting to teethe (but I wonder this at least one time a month :) given her swollen and transparent looking gums, her waking up the last few nights not to nurse but just being fussy, and pulling on my nipples while nursing, etc.  But I could just be reading into it.  Just curious what to expect/look for.

    We were lucky and BabyHill had very mild symptoms.

    Very swollen gums (it's very noticable), fussy, drool, drool, drool, wouldn't eat very much.

    Drooling, chewing on everything, fussiness....but seriously she has been teething for months.  She didn't get her first tooth until right at 8 months and she currently only has the 4 bottom teeth.  She has been cutting the top teeth forever.  The Dr. told us a month ago at her 1 year they were coming in and they are still not here!  Ibuprofen helps her at night if she is really fussy and I just recently finally found the Highland teething tablets.
