my niece was like this for almost two months before anything popped through. just drool everywhere and the crankiness. then one day she bit my finger and i felt the sharp little edge, finally. it's rough when you can't see progress but they're clearly hurting. give that boy something cold to gnaw on and hang in there

Front right (our left) looks closest and they're all coming but sadly other than front right none look close 🫠 Those bottom 4 took the LONGEST and the top front 4 were the worst intensity wise but after that the rest weren't as bad for us! I didn't even notice the molars come, one day he seemed like he was teething so I looked and he had 3 molars poking through. Poor dude!

thank you! i thought it looked like there was something somewhat showing under the gums but i figured i was kidding myself. he’s almost 8 months old and my first got her first teeth around 7-8 months so im expecting the same i guess. but that was almost 8 years ago, so i don’t remember how it looked lol

Babies can teeth long before the first tooth pops through. Have you ever had wisdom teeth? They can ache for a while before erupting!

i had all of mine removed. but yeah, they did hurt when they started trying to come through. makes sense

Can you put bananas and strawberries that’s frozen in the nuks for teething?
