My child was seven months off age when he start teething, to some mothers they may say it was too early, others too long. To every child the time for teething may come after their third month off birth, or it could even be sooner. There is not an exact time for every child, not all children are the same. Though they all go through the same baby stages; however at their owned pace and different point in their growth.
Teething is the process by which an infant's teeth sequentially appear by breaking through the gums. The typical time frame for new teeth to appear is somewhere between six and nine months. Though the process of teething is sometimes referred to as "cutting teeth", when teeth emerge through the gums they do not cut through. Some of the symptoms that comes when teething is the irritating of the gums, the slavering, drivel all over themselves till their first bite with their first teeth. There is pain associated with teething that a baby can handle and that also will be different for each child. Some may be a lot fussier than others while they are teething. The soreness and swelling of the gums before a tooth comes through is the cause for the pain and fussiness a baby experiences during this change. These symptoms usually begin about three to five days before the tooth shows, and they disappear as soon as the tooth breaks the skin. Some babies are not even bothered by teething. I have two boys; they both went through all their baby stages at a different point in their growth. Jaden, my five year old son, started the irritation of his gums at the age of five months old and his first tooth erupt when he was turning seven months old. Jaymen, my three year old son, started drivel when he was seven months of age and his tooth came out right before his was nine months old. For many kids their teeth would come on when they are ready to do so, many parents try to rush things or wonder what is wrong with their child. It all takes time, time and patience!
