Question

My son is displaying signs of teething but he's only 3 months old. Is he too young?

Answer 1

All the babies are different, my son has his first tooth when he is 5 month old, don't worry ^.^

Answer 2

never too young my son was 3 months when he started teething and got his first 2 at 4 months and now at 8 months he has 6 teeth

Answer 3

Never too young.  My little brother was born with 3 teeth.  That's REALLY crappy breast feeding wise!  :)  

Answer 4

my daughter is 2 1/2 months and showing early signs too. idk if they're too young or not though. a friend of mine said that her kid started at 3 months too... so i guess not... i'd say ask your peditrition.

Answer 5

No, all 3 of my children started around 3 months of age.  My son teethed pretty bad so i used to give him babies panadol to reduce the discomfort, and applied teething gel to his gums.

Answer 6

Nope some are born with teeth (Very Few) mine started at 2 months and had them at 3 months. Nope not to young. My first real sign that officially told me he was teething was the swollen gums. I wish him the best!

Answer 7

nope.

i got mine at about that age, when my sister didn't get hers untill about 6 months.

everyone is different :)

Answer 8

My baby started signs around 2 months of age & in the past 2 weeks it has been increasing!! 3 months isn't too young to start the teething process even though the teeth might not come through for a while yet.

Answer 9

No, he's not too young, some babies are even born with teeth. Every baby has all of their teeth buds under their gums, if not some popped through already, at birth.

However, around 3-4 months the salivary glands start working really well and cause an increase in drooling and chewing behavior. I swore my 4-month-old was starting to teeth with the amount of drool and chomping she was doing but we just had our well baby visit and none are even trying to come through yet so it must just be the glands working overdrive. :)

Answer 10

Nope, 3 of my 4 kids started teething at 3 months...they didn't get their teeth til at least 6 months tho. But they were all definately teething as early as 3 months! Congrats on your baby.

Answer 11

No, my oldest had both his bottom teeth in at 3 months.
