very early teething!

DD is 3 weeks 6 days and is teething already! I dont care what you say about 'not possible' blah blah, she is drooling loads, eating her fist a lot more, constantly wanting to nurse, she wont settle and is crying a lot (very unusual for her) and when i rub her little white stump that she has on her gum she relaxes a lot and bites down on my finger to put pressure on the tooth!

yikes poor thing.

Aw  
Teething is the worst
My LO started teething at like 6 weeks

Why would someone say that its not possible? Some kids are born with teeth.

My son had a tooth at two weeks... no one believed me until I opened his mouth to show them. But it never came out all the way... it just went back in one day. Go figure.

Exactly what I was thinking! Some people just know eeeeeverything lol.

Poor baby. Hopefully they come in quickly at least  

It is very possible, and a lot of times they come up, and go back down many times before they will actually cut through.

My middle child started teething at a month old and got them two at a time and was done with her first year teeth by six months. Poor thing was miserable. Hopefully it will be over quick.

awww poor baby. both of mine started at 2 months but my first son didnt get his first tooth until about 6 months im still waiting to see when my 4 month olds will come in

I've just read previous posts on here about similar things and there was a lot of women saying "it's not possible that they are teething so young" but whoops my bad! i didn't mean to judge you all so quickly!

It's so horrible to see her so distressed!
Is there anything i can give her in the way of medication or home remedies that will make it more bearable for her? I know gels at this age are out of the question... i heard getting a teething ring and put it in the freezer? Only issue there though is that she is far too young to grasp onto it and put it in her mouth herself, but i could do it for her?

Quoting MILF !!:" yikes poor thing."

Yeah she really isn't happy bless her!  
I've finally managed to settle her down into her moses basket, i've been trying since 7pm and it's now 2:40am, poor baby

Was every single night a battle to get them to settle? or were there nights where she would settle pretty easily?
As much as I hate to see her in distress and wish for her to be okay, I do need some sleep too... I've had 1 hour sleep in the last 50ish hours and still trying to stay strong but I am starting to struggle...

You could freeze a wet washcloth and rub it on her gums. I used one of those mesh baby feeders filled with ice for DS, but he was like 4 months and up, so I don't know how well that would work :/ They have those Hyland's teething tabs, but again, I'm not sure if they are age appropriate. I'm so sorry   Teething is a terrible time for little ones. Lots of cuddles and warm baths for comfort.
