Teething

[MadamDarwin2009]

Hi all

Hopefully someone can help?
New first time mum here and need some help

My little girl is now 8 weeks and is getting over the snuffles so this could be a reason but I think she is teething. She is dribbling a lot more than I ever remember and isn't having as much milk as normal - though not lost all her appetite. She is also grouchy more so than usual and very clingy .....

Any help / advice would be great

Thank you

Hi there, this probably won't help you but I thought my DD was teething from about 10 weeks old!
She actually got her teeth at 7 months (now 9 months).
It isn't impossible to teeth early but on the other hand, babies dribble a lot more now with saliva glands working, also can have miserable days etc. My DD also used to chew her hands and not for hunger at that point. I used to think that maybe there is some action high up in gums even though teeth not coming through yet.
Anyway, congrats on your new baby!
