    Question teething!is this normal??

    ok well nixon got 2 teeth with in a week of eachother when he was 7 mths and another week or so after that he got an EYE tooth , top right... and for the last month or so there have been huge swollen lumps on his gums where his top teeth are coming through .. which i know is normal ... but apart from that his other eye tooth seems to be coming in faster than the front ones ...

    but heres whats bothering me/him :
    his top left tooth which isnt thought yet has a blister on the part where the tooth comes through .. kwim.... the blister is dark purple in side it and he crys when someone touches his face in that area ... and always rubs his tounge on it ...

    im new at all this . so please help ... im certain a blister isnt normal for teething ...
    im at a loss here

    I think blistering gums can be normal with teething, however it wouldnt hurt to get it checked out by MCHN???

    Does it look like a mouth ulcer? Mason has something similar to that.
