Re: At what age does a baby start teething?

A lot of the behaviors that people attribute to teething are also just developmentally appropriate behaviors...such as drooling, putting things in the mouth, etc.
The only real way to know that a baby is teething is seeing the little teeth buds in their gums. And it can happen at any time - some babies are born with teeth....some don't get them until after they are a year old!

2 months he started drooling a lot and sucking on his fingers. I thought it was early stages of teething.

At 4 months he is drooling through all his clothes and gnawing on anything that comes near his mouth, but no sign of teeth yet. And he runs his tongue over his front gums.
