Teething Troubles – What Parents Should Know

Teething Troubles – What Parents Should Know

Teething is a natural process, but it can be uncomfortable for little ones — and stressful for parents too. Most babies start teething between 6 to 10 months.

Common signs:

  • Drooling
  • Mild irritability or fussiness
  • Swollen or tender gums
  • Chewing on fingers or toys
  • Interrupted sleep

😢 Mild fever or a slightly warm forehead is normal — but high fever, diarrhea, or rashes may be unrelated and should be checked with a pediatrician.

👶 Comfort Tips:

  • Use a clean finger or cold (not frozen) teething rings to gently massage gums.
  • Wipe drool often to prevent rashes.
  • Chilled spoons or teething toys can offer relief.

Avoid using gels or medications without professional advice. If you’re unsure whether your child’s symptoms are normal, we’re here to guide you.
