Baby has been chewing her hands constantly , I noticed this on the side of her mouth does feel quite rough? Not sure if it's teeth or white gums or thrush

How old is she? Is it an Epstein pearl?

Shes turning 3 months so a little early for teeth I admit and honestly I'm not sure how to tell if its an epstein pearl I've felt it and the the texture is quite grainy?/rough

I don't know exactly what they are/why they appear but they're little white cyst things that can appear on a baby's gums when they're very young. They're harmless and go away, but can look a bit like a tooth has broken through the side of the gum.

Ah ok thanks. I think my baby had one lol thought a tooth was coming then it disappeared. So I thought maybe baby teeth move around a bit before where deciding to stay 😂
