Seems a bit early for teething… I think my kids both got their first teeth around 5 months or so.

    no not really, i mean babies can start the teething process really early and pop them through quick (like my little sister 6 weeks one tooth) or they can teeth for several months like that like my son, started around 12 weeks didnt get a took till about 4 months!

    my soon started those symptoms at about 12 weeks too…he is almost 4 moths and is covered in drool from teething, lol

    My daughter started at 3 and a half months (chewing her fingers and drooling like a fountain). She’s 6 months now with no teeth though.
    The vast majority of babies sprout their first teeth when they’re between 4 and 7 months of age. An early developer may get his first white cap as early as 3 months, while a late bloomer may have to wait until he’s a year old or more. (In rare cases, a baby’s first tooth is already visible at birth.) Whenever the first tooth makes its appearance, celebrate the milestone by taking pictures and noting the date in your child’s baby book

    Nope, their teeth start moving around in their gums for a while before they cut through. My son started showing signs of teething at about 14 weeks, but didn’t cut ANY until 2 weeks before his first birthday. He is now 12 months and only has his top 2 teeth, no signs of the others yet except his constant chewing.
