Teething at 10 weeks?

[MummaSue]

Is this possible?
My little on is showing all the signs of teething but she's only 10 weeks old!

Anyone else have an early starter with teeth? I can definitely feel something happening and she is drooling and chewing her fists (and anything else that she can get her hands on!).

Poor wee darling, not only does she have reflux and wind, now it looks like she has her teeth to deal with.

My little brother got his first tooth at 3 months so anything is possible!

Hope she's not in too much pain and you get through unscathed.

Cheers,
Fiona

It can be possible but generally all the extra drool is from the excitement of the discovery that things can go in their mouth to chew on, you know what its like when we think of something yummy to eat and our mouth waters, well its the same for them, cause everything looks yummy to chew on. All babies put just about everything they pick up in their mouths, its a sensory development thing. Time for a little drool bib

It's definitely possible, but my child has been drooling copiously, sometimes wetting half his torso if we don't get a bib on, and gumming on everything he can find, which now that he can bend himself over has included a metal bar on his bouncy chair and a table, for about 8 weeks now (he's 20 weeks old) and no teeth have come through yet. So you could also just have a very drooly chewy baby for a long time.

Totally possible! My almost 15 week old bub had a total personality change at 9 weeks. Couldnt work it out becuase I thought it was too young for teething. Thought it might have been from her needles. As it turned out at 12 weeks and 3 days her first tooth broke through. Now she is 14weeks and 5 days and has started showing all the same signs. Had a sticky beak just before and another tooth is just under the skin!

My DD started dribbling, chewing, red cheeks and showing general teething signs at about 12 weeks. She has cut 4 teeth, the forst at 4 months BUT all 4 have gone back up and she hasnt had a single cut tooth stay through the gum yet

Most definitely! We started seeing white in my DS's mouth at 2 and a little bit months old and a few weeks later he had 2 teeth come through

I am convinced my DD (13wks) is teething because she has red cheaks, drooling and gumming everything, irratable and her top gum has changed in feel. But everyone I talk to say she is too young to be teething.

I think it is entirly possible. Sometimes it would be eaiser if they could talk to us and tell us whats going on. lol.
