Early teething

My ds1 was 9 weeks yesterday and this week I have noticed that he is dribbling alot, really really cranky and has been chewing his hands/ me/ anything.

Could this be him teething? Or is it far to early? And is there anything I can give him this young for it?

Only other thing is he had his immunisations on Tuesday which could account for the crankiness, but the rest appears to be symptoms of teething.

Seems a little early but know some babies do. Chewing hands can also be something to do, or hunger.

Hope he cheers up soon x

My dd started teething at that age. She had a few teeth by 3 months.

Babies can be born with teeth so it is not too young, but teething can take months before a tooth cuts. Try frozen binky, gum massage wet wash cloth. And if your lo iS a hand butbiter check out thr teething mitts from www.etsy.com/uk/shop/easybreazybaby
