teething??when??

My first daughter didn't get her first tooth till like 7 or 8 months and i'm just wondering if a baby who is just about to be three months could be teething. my second daughter will be 3 months in a week, she is chewing her fists, slobbering everywhere, crying a lot like she is in pain, and not sleeping well... could it be teething? i'm just not sure if it is too early....

yup. every baby is different. some babies are even born with teeth. how weird would that be?!

Mine was doing that at 3 months.

Babies can teeth for weeks before an actual tooth pops up. I think my son teethed around 4 months but his two bottom front teeth didnt pop up until he was about 6 months.

my son will be 2 months on Monday. He chews on his fists and slobbers, and I did notice he has been crying more...is he teething?

That would be so creepy!!

MY DD had her first tooth just prior to 3 month she is now 11 months and has 10 teeth. SO yes teething can start at anytime.
