Teething 9mo. old?

my daughter is 9mo. and her gums have been swolllen for a couple months now and she has been teething and last week she had a fever for 2 days really cranky chewing on everything and then this week she has done the same exact thing but still no teeth have popped through how long does it usually take after they really start teething with a fever and everything i feel so bad for her i wish they would just come through already

Teething 9mo. old?
According to my mom I didn't get teeth until 2 weeks AFTER my first birthday. This was due to my thick gums. I would highly recommend instead of the tylenol try Hylands or Humphrey's Teething Tablets. Also, if she's already eating solids, try to give her one of those teething mesh thingys that you can put fruit in it. You can put a piece of cantelope or apple that is REALLY cold and have her chew on it. It will help keep the inflammation down. Teething bisquits help as well. If you haven't done so already, get an infant toothbrush (it has nubs on it instead of bristles) and brush her teeth twice a day and put some orajel on it and it will stimulate the gums so that the tooth can errupt quicker.





I hope this helps!

Reply:Whoa that is late. I started walking at 10mo.
Reply:yeah like when they reach a year then they will start coming out. one thing that will make your baby relax is teething toys, and baby orajel. that will numb her gums. also try not to touch her gums because she might get infected.
Reply:teeth usually start coming in around 6 months, some earlier, some later. I would expect hers to come in any day now if she is already 9 mos.
Reply:they'll pop through soon...give the kid some tylenol and a teething ring. you'll both get through it.
Reply:every person is different so who is to tell. good luck to you and daughter
Reply:Maybe you should see your doctor or dentist.


Just to be sure they're coming in right?
Reply:you need to take a clean wash cloth and tie an ice cube in a knot and give it to baby to bite on. it will sooth the gums and help the teeth come in
Reply:teeth actually start developing while your baby's in the womb, when tooth buds form in the gums. Teeth break through one at a time over a period of months, and often — but not always — in this order: First the bottom two middle teeth, then the top two middle ones, then the ones along the sides and back. They may not all come in straight, but don't worry — they usually straighten out over time.
Reply:Every child is different. The only thing you can really do is give her a childs pain reliever. There are many over the counter options. Also try freezing a teething ring..they really like gumming these and the cold numbs the pain
Reply:my son is 6 months and has been doing the same thing for over a month with still no teeth. They tell me it could be months.





On another note: if you use teething tablets, check the ingreditants VERY carefully. My pediatrician was telling us that the most common tablet(sold at walmart) contains belladonna, which is poisonous!!! And coffee!! So read the list of ingredients before you give them to your daughter





good luck!!
Reply:Some are late teethers. Wet a washcloth and put in the freezer for 5 minutes and let her chew on it. It will comfort her chewing need and the cold will help with the swelling and pain.





for you just be patient and loving.
Reply:it will take a while dear.
Reply:I have found that with my 8 month old giving her tylenol then a cold teething ring helps her a lot.
