Well, being the expert parents that we are (4 months of experience makes us experts, right?!), we were fairly certain Colton was teething during his 3rd month of life. He was doing all the typical stuff of babies at this point...drooling, sticking things in his mouth, - but we were also noticing other things....screams of pain when he put his hands in his mouth, more messy diapers, lots and lots of drooling, FUSSINESS, going through 3 bottles of tylenol in a week (not really).
We felt sure this is something we should talk to his doctor about. When we brought it up at his 4 month appointment she assured us he wouldn't be teething yet, but made us feel better by telling us that all 4 month parents think their babies are teething!
She said teeth will happen around 7 months,...I guess we made up all of the symptoms in our heads. Some 'expert' parents we are!
