Teething in 3 1/2 month old?

My son started teething at 2 1/2 months, he is now 3 1/2 and in this time my son sleeps through a few nights then wakes during the next few nights, he has done this for the entire month. Is this how teething works for babies? Are they bothered by their teeth for a few days then fine for the next few?

Teething in 3 1/2 month old?
What makes you think he is teething?


Babies will get drooly %26amp; will chew on their hands whenever they find them, but not necessarily be teething.





His waking could be due to a growth spurt, or just a change in sleep patterns.
Reply:YES, THAT IS HOW IT WORKS FOR SOME. MINE WENT ON AND OFF LIKE THAT FOR A MONTH!
Reply:WAKING IS NOT JUST BECAUSE OF TEETHING HE MAY BE ABOUT TO START SOMETHING NEW LIKE CRAWLING OR STANDING USUALLY WHEN THEY ARE ABOUT TO DO SOMETHING NEW THE ARE RESTLESS SLEEPERS IF HE CONTINUES TO WAKE MAYBE TRY CHANGING THE DIRECTION OF HIS CRIB THAT HELPED MY SON ?
Reply:uh sometimes are you sure its teething? becuase babys do that sometimes they just wake up and sometimes they sleep





if your baby is teething try highlands teething tablets they are amazing
Reply:My son started teething around 3 1/2 month also.





One night he woke up every hour on the hour and it was not until a couple of days later I saw the tooth.





When he gets a tooth he's fussy for a few days then fine.


Teething question??

my son is almost 3 months old and he is really fussy and drooling ALOT! is it too early for him to be teething? and when should he start teething?

Teething question??
its no doubt that he is teething my daughter did the same thing suprisingly at the same age. i would try some teething tablets or teething droplets also with teething comes fussiness fevers and sometimes loose stool and occasionally a little bit of vomit but thats perfectly normal with babys but if those dont work i would try a frozen pacifier or teething ring or a popscicle my daughter went through several just let him suck on the popscicle the cold will help sooth his gums. just dont let him bite off a piece also a cold bottle of ice water helps too. good luck!
Reply:NOPE baby's teeth sometimes for MONTHS! Try teething tablets from hylands or teething drops by gentle naturals. Tylenol if he is really fussy. A tooth may not appear for a few more months still so be prepared for that.Also cold symptoms and loose stool may follow
Reply:Your baby is teething. The teeth may not show but he is teething. My baby is always drooling. I have to put a bib on him and give him teething tablets often. His teeth might not come out for months but he his teething.
Reply:This is what our pediatrician told us at 4 months:





1. All babies drool.. regardless if they are teething. Many babies drool a LOT. (my daughter did for 3 months before she ever got a tooth)





2. All babies are fussy.. regardless if they are teething. Most babies are noticeably fussy starting at 3-4 months because they are starting to be aware of their surroundings and notice things that they didnt before (mommy isnt holding me... etc)





3. The number one myth in raising an infant is that if they are drooly and fussy they are teething.











Don't worry about it ;) Yes, he CAN be teething but he may also just be doing a normal baby thing. Again my daughter started drooling, (A LOT) fussing.. acting like she was teething starting at around 3-4 months.. she didnt get her first tooth until she was almost 7 months.
Reply:no my baby started teething @ two months. try orajel and give him something real cold to scratch his gum. a teething ring, rub his gum and give him motrin if he gets a fever; the line close to the bottom. trust me i know


Teething, ear infection? PLEASE help..?

My daughter is 5 and half months old. Starting 2 days ago shes been a bit fussy, she pulls at her hair around her ears, mainly her right one.. She does not pull at her ears though. She drools constantly, she has this little fake cough she does.. cranky, chews on anything she can.. Never finishs her bottles lately.. Always ends up just chewing on the nipple.. My question is at night time, she REFUSES to sleep, she will sleep for a hour, then up crying for the past 2 nights.. like she just cant get comfy, wiggles around..restless...Since she was born, shes slept threw the night, so this is totally new to me.. It seems shes happier during the day kind of then she is at night. Is this normal, ear infection and teething have such common symptoms..I gave her tylenol at midnight last night, didnt seem to help much.. I can feel little bumps on her gums, and her doctor felt them too. Im just confused, ear infection?? or is this normal with teething? THANK YOU

Teething, ear infection? PLEASE help..?
First I feel your pain, I've been there.


Ear infections andrunny stuffy noses are all related to teething so dont worry about it, there is nothing you can do for the ear pain but have patiuence and for the runny nose some saline baby drops might work along with a nasal suction thingy.


Your baby is teething, my son cutted his first front upper and lower 4 when he was only 5 months, what you can do is instead of giving your baby tylenol give her baby motrin (Ibuprofen) it works a whole lot better and faster than acetaminophen (tylenol) it has also been prooved that Tylenol can be harmfull to an infant, if you got for motrin get the dyed free one, trust me it works.


I also sugest that you get teething pills, they run aroun 5 bucks at any store they should be on the baby section where baby meds are and they work almost instantly, there is no limit with those since they are natural ingredients, you can give your baby up to 15 and will also help your baby right away, also there is a gel paste like Orajel called Little Teethers, from Little remedies, those work inmediatly you apply it in your baby's gums and you will notice the change, the little teethers paste doesnt burn like baby orajel does, instead it haves a sweet taste to it but because it numbs baby gums baby might drool a little more.


Since your baby is bitting you should get her s ome teething toys, and i you can get the ones that have water inside (they are sold at walmart as well) get those and keep them in the freezer and whenever your baby starts bitting give her a frozen teething toy this should help refresh her gums when she bites it.


there are lots type of teething toys, from teething rings to teething blankies, etc.


if she refuses to play with the refrigetated ones, get Ice cream and give her a lil bit everyonce in a while the coldness of the treat will also help make her baby gums feel better.


I Hope this lil info helps.. I've been there, my son is only 15 months old and he has all his teeth 20 to be exact.


so i know what you are going thru and get ready cus it only gets worse till they cut the very last ones. also canines are the most painful ones to cut since they are pointy and tend to wear and make the gums more sore than the rest do.


Again, sorry to hear baby is having a hard time, none of us parents like to see our babies go thru that but its just natural.


I almost forgot, sometimes rubbing baby benadryl in baby's gums relaxes them and stop the pain...thats what my sons pediatrician recommended us and it worked!!!


Good luck for you and your baby and hope you get some sleep, since teething babies keep you up all night!!!!

Reply:I'm a mother of 3, This is teething not ear infection, buy her special teething toys that she can chew on when you put her in bed.
Reply:They do get fussy when they teeth and they may pull their ears or hair and if she isn't running a temp then it isn't a bacterial infection of the ears at worst it may be a virus. If it is a viral ear infection it should clear up by itself in a couple of days. Antibiotics are pointless for a virus.





Essentially, at this stage it doesn't matter if it's teething or a virus, the treatment is much the same. Give plenty of fluids and pain meds before she goes to bed. Give her a teething ring to chew and try teething gel on her gums - It works wonders. If it is teeth she will calm down almost immediately after it is applied.





If she isn't better in a couple of days or starts running a fever take her to the doc, but I think she's teething.
Reply:normal teething im afraid! give it time, it will pass. Lots of patience and cuddles..
Reply:My son had an ear infection with almost every tooth he cut when he was a baby...it is very common. I would take your baby to the dr and have the dr check her ears and make sure...my son had the fussines, ear infection, and most of the time a heck of a fever to go with the ear infections....it makes for a not so fun time for them or us...good luck hun!

Teething question: URGENT?

I just got a puppy exactly one week ago and my mom was wondering when teething ends? The pup just turned 3 months old yesterday, and we have at least 7 chew toys for her! She bites EVERYTHING in sight, unless she is resting. But we need to know when a puppy stops teething. Thanks!

Teething question: URGENT?
Your dog isn't necessarily displaying teething behavior. Puppies at all stages bite, you need training to fix it. You can't always just wait it out.
Reply:The teething hasn't begun yet. She will start to lose her baby teeth soon.

"They chew


until there 2"
Reply:It can last from age 5 months to over one year (or longer). Remember to keep it away from dangerous things like electrical cords or appliances that are hooked up. Good luck!
Reply:try getting a wash cloth and drenching it in water (you could add a bit of chicken stock too), then wring it out and put it in the freezer all rolled up. having something cold for the teeth really helps.





teething can last longer for some dogs than others, the best way to tell is to check your dogs mouth and see which teeth still need to come in. on average i would say it lasts a couple months.





also even though your puppy needs to chew, don't be lenient and allow him to chew things he shouldn't. and if he bites you, do the "yelp and shun" to get him to stop.





ADD: oh and the others are right, teething usually doesn't start until 4 - 5 months, and usually the canines at 6 months, and by 8 months they pretty much have all their adult teeth.
Reply:You can soak and freeze nylaropes for her, and conversely, spray stuff you don't want her to chew (like woodwork) with Bitter Apple.





Get a small spray bottle and some icky yellow Listerine to spray on your hands, so you don't have to endure the Bitter Apple - it really does taste terrible!





I hope you're crating this puppy - that is the only surefire way to keep them safe when you're not directly surpervising them
Reply:It all depends on the breed and the size really although most dogs will stop teething around 5 months! She's experiencing exactly the same things as a human baby, the high temperature, the hot cheeks, the very sore gums, maybe the runs, being misreable and snappy, sad eh? Made even sadder because she can't tell you! You can rub some baby formula Bonjela ( a numbing gel for teething human babies ) on her gums plus give her ice cubes to suck - mine loved them when they were going through the agonys of teething, they still love them now in fact when the weathers very hot! Teething doesn't last forever, she's almost over it and you'll be finding her little gnashers all over the place ha ha. She can't help biting things, it does help with the pain and discomfort but try the ice cubes - they were a god send to me and mine. Good luck.


Teething Question?

My 6 1/2 month old has been pretty much crying all morning and chewing on everything. Does anybody Else's baby cry all day when there teething? I have given Tylenol, teething ring and orajel.

Teething Question?
When my son cuts a new tooth he cries all the time and is super fussy, chews on everything in site and has an almost completely wet shirt from all of the drooling. He usually nurses more so i let him as much as he wants to, he doesn't care for teethers but he does have a pacifier that he only ever uses to chew on at home when teething. Also i give him hylands teething tablets during the day when needed, put ice in the mesh feeders or freeze some applesauce and feed it to him and that helps sometimes and then he gets tylenol before bed. Hope your little one feels better soon.
Reply:My baby is 7 1/2 months old and we are going through the same thing right now. She doesn't really cry all day, but she fusses mostly all day. She just wants to nurse all day and be held. I try to put her in the same room as me and just love on her a lot. I mean, I know it's gotta hurt. The Tylenol should kick in pretty soon and start to help a little. If you have a swing, try putting your baby in it. My baby still loves hers and it helps a little. Good Luck.
Reply:I have heard that some babies will run a slight fever, and also get diarrhea when teething....and crying of course! Also, my sister in law also told me that my nephew was very clingy when he began to teethe. Good luck!!
Reply:Luckily my daughter is not bothered by teething but a close friend has a baby who really suffers and she swears my the medicine called Mediced!


Teething question!!?

How long does it take for a tooth to start showing if they are teething? I dont know if my baby is teething or not she is 3 months old. She has all the symptoms but it has been like 3 weeks now and she has no teeth. What do you think?

Teething question!!?
Babies can teeth for weeks even months before a tooth comes through. My oldest started at 5 months will all the signs of getting a tooth yet she didn't get her first tooth until two days before her first birthday, I was ready to call a dentist. My son started at about 2 months with all of it and had four teeth at 3 months. You really can't predict when a tooth will appear. The main thing is to keep the baby comfy. Use frozen wash clothes and teething rings, another thing is frozen waffles. If she is acting like that doesn't help then try tylenol. They also sell a teething tablet at Wal-Mart. It is 100% natural and it helps some.
Reply:Babies can start teething anywhere from 2-3 months before a tooth actually appears. My 9 month old started a t 3 months and his first tooth appeared at 5 months. Something that worked best for us is frozen wet washcloths. Good luck.
Reply:A baby can "Teeth" for Months. It might take a while for the teeth break through.
Reply:It can take quite some time for the tooth to show. My son had all the symptoms for a long time he never really got his tooth in to where i could see it untill he was about 5 or 6 months old.
Reply:For us, it takes too long! lol Our son was around 3 months when he would drool and drool lot's! Then when he got really fussy-it would last probably a whole week, then finally when the tooth broke through, he was okay and happier than ever... then starting it all over again for each tooth. Once his teeth came through, it was like 1 tooth every 2 weeks for the first four teeth- but all children are different. Let's just say he's 1 yr old now, and still teething, and still pretty fussy when it happens! Tylenol is really the only thing that helps for us. But teethers, cold rags, drinking from a glass, all helps a little.


You'll see teeth within the next couple of months at least!
Reply:Each kid is different and some gums are tougher to cut thru. Just keep giving her cool things to chew on, or cold washcloths to suck on. I never used a painkiller with my kid, but others may need some. Check her fever and make sure it is teething and not infection. You can ask her doctor if serious concerns show up.
Reply:she's got the teeth...they just have to break through the gums...which is why she's probably fussy and drooling and crying sometimes...ONCE that first tooth breaks through...the others won't hurt her as much!!
Reply:It can take a long time for the first tooth to break through. My son began teething around 3 months and his first tooth didn't come until he was 5 1/2 months.
Reply:Yes it is possible %26amp; even likely. Try frozen teething rings and gripe water if you must ( lotsa alcohol in gripe water ) remember that the rigs thaw quickly so you need several to keep up.
Reply:three months old seems a bit young to start teething, it usually starts around the end of the fourth month... but there are always those early starters. if she has a runny nose and is crying... and tylenol doesn't help, try switching to motrin. if she has a fever, give the pediatrician a call.
Reply:do you feel any little lumps under the gums, my so showed signs and had little lumps way before any tooth actually broke thru.
Reply:My Little Girl Is Now 4 Months. She Was Having All The Symptoms. Drooling, Cracky...She Started This About A Month Ago. 3 Months Old. Her First Tooth Broke Through A 1 1/2 Weeks Ago. Now She Is Trying To Get Her Second Botton Tooth In.
Reply:i used a safe teeth-er. i would cut up fresh fruit, like, bananas, apples, peaches, pears, and freeze it. out it in the teeth-er and baby was happy. you can also use blueberries and grapes with out the choking hazard. i included the link for what i used. i kept 3 different tops. one for fruits, veggies , and meats. don't freeze the meats though, just put meats and cooked veggies in, to introduce baby to the taste. p.s. don't put an Oreo in it, makes one hell of a mess

Teething problems?

The problem is that my baby is not even 3 months yet and she is teething and is extremely uncomfortable. I can't give her anything to bite on because she can hardly hold things and manipulate things with her hands to get it in her mouth the right way. She'll get it in but then jerks her hand away and it comes out and that just makes her more frustrated.


I put orajel on her gums, but how many times am I gonna do that.


Is there a something I could give her?


Oh and I try to hold teething toys in her mouth but I think they are too hard for her, she cries out in pain when she bites down on it.

Teething problems?
Have you taken her to the doctor to rule out everything else? When my son was 3 months he was acting as though he was teething as well, I knew he didn't need to eat or be changed or burped etc. I eliminated everything like that, but he was still crying as though he was uncomfortable, he was drooling excessivly and always biting on everything. It turned out that he had an ear infection and thats why he was uncomfortable. It's not unheard of that babies start teething that young, I would just make sure to take her to the doctor first to rule everything out and then try the teething tablets, and tylenol at nighttime to help her feel more comfortable to sleep better. And make sure that you don't put her teething toys in the freezer as they can cause frostbite on her little gums, and be careful with the orajel because it has been known to cause choking if it gets into their throat and numbs their it so they have no gag reflex.


Good luck!
Reply:Tylenol may help a little w/ the pain. She is still too young to have ibuprofen (I believe Dr's say at least 6 mos). You can also get teething pills that will dissolve under her tongue. They worked wonderfully for my daughter. You may also try and let her knaw on a cold, wet wash cloth while you hold her.
Reply:Try Hylands teething tablets (it does not rub off)
Reply:I know it's kind of gross BUT take a clean wash cloth and wet it in bottled water, ring it out, put it in a zip lock bag and in the fridge for like a half hour or so....take it out and put it in her mouth. It's so much softer and cold and wet. My daughter had horrible pain with her gums at that age (even though she is only 14 months now and only has 3 teeth and those three were a b*tch to come in, felt bad for her). But my mom recommended it and I did it to please her and my daughter LOVED IT! It was softer, not as big to get in her little mouth, and just worked perfect! I asked the doctor and she said did the same thing with her girls! She only said to use a white cloth (no dyes then) and she recommended the bottled water because they do suck a little in, and then you know it's safer than tap for her. GOOD LUCK!!
Reply:orajel actually makes the gums tougher so that it's harder for the teeth to come thru.....try rubbing her gums with liquid Tylenol. does she have a pacifier? if so let her teeth on it..
