S.S.
Being a new mom I thought that children started to teeth at like 12 months. WRONG!!!!!!!!!! They can start very early. My daughter is almost 4 months and she has been teething since she was about 2 months. Her teeth haven't come in yet, but she is very crabby and drooly. Try Teething tablets they work wonders. I was told that the baby orajel can numb the throat when they swallow it and the child could over dose. The tablets disolve under the tungue and it doesn't affect the throat at all if they swallow it.
Hope every thing goes well.
