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.
