Has my baby started to cut a back tooth?

Hi everybody I probably sound the daftest person ever but it looks like my baby has started to cut a back tooth at 14 weeks! He wasn’t himself for a few days crying A lot more than usual (which after 4 hours I gave him some calpol and it seemed to calm him down) off his food, constantly chewing his fist, drooling loads, and randomly waking up in his sleep crying/screaming. He usually sleeps and eats really well and rarely cries unless he’s hungry, this went on for 4 days and on the 5th day it was like nothing had ever been wrong completely back to his normal self except he was still sucking his fist but I think babies usually do this around he’s age anyway. When he was doing me a great big smile I saw something in the Back of his mouth at the top on the right hand side, it’s just like a white mark but feels abit hard to touch, it doesn’t wipe away if you try wipe it and he gets a little fussy if you touch it doesn’t cry as such just wimpers. I have tried ringing my HV but she hasn’t rang me back yet so I’m planning on ringing our GP on Monday morning but just wondering if anybody has had any ideas on what it could be because surely it can’t be a back tooth yet? Thanks everyone any answers appreciated

@Holhunt you might want to post this in another thread, not sure conception is right? X

@Holhunt meant on another board...

Does he have any other teeth? I think it would be unusual for a molar to be the first tooth. Could it be an ulcer? Or oral thrush even?

Might be. I distinctly remember awful runny bottoms as well at the same time! Like bird poo.

@MintGreenLife sorry I could have sworn I was on babies board 🙈😂 but no he has no other teeth at all his front ones do feel very close to the top of the gum but you can’t see them if that makes sense?
