What does it look like when your baby is cutting a tooth?

Like a little white spot on their gum??

Oh, and is there a place where the first teeth come in?

DD gum looked like a little blister. The gum was clear and you could see a little white under there.

get som cold teething rings. Oragel did not work for my son. I had to give him motrin. He pretty much got the first two within days of eachother. It looks like his top four are coming down at the same time.
