Early teething?
Sophie's 15 weeks tomorrow and I really think she might be teething, but it seems so early! She started with always having her hands in her mouth and dribbling at about 11 weeks and I just put it down to her having found her hands. However, she's getting red cheeks (not all the time) and is biting everything that comes near her mouth. Yesterday whilst she was in the baby carrier she bit my finger so hard it went red. She was also inconsolable for about an hour in the evening. She was clearly hungry but every time I offered her the breast she'd suck for a few seconds and then come off screaming. She eventually wore herself out and I managed to feed her. I can't see or feel anything in her gum though. She didn't seem unwell, as she was quite content to play and smile and coo once she'd actually had some food.
Did anyone else's lo start like this at a similar age, and how long did it last for?!

I think teething symptoms can start really early but it could be months before a tooth actually shows.
Anyways at 18 weeks popped his first tooth x
I'm going to get some of the Ashton & Parsons powder and give that a go if she gets upset again today like she did yesterday.
Your poor wee mite with all the pain and no results...evil teeth!
