First lot of hugs to all the \" chewing and screaming folks\" .Abhi also chews on anything.he prefers his fingers.Last week i met a friend of my friend who had a baby girl on same day as Abhi.this baby was born with 2 teeth,probably she was teething and chewing before she was born.But i flet the two front milk teeth looked crooked.
i think teething can go for a long time before we actually see teeth coming.Babies drool a lot.Lot of saliva flows from mouth.Anybody facing that.This can also cause a rash in the chin and near mouth.
Abhi is also screeching nowadays a lot.He is not yet singing but Arjun used to sing and i have a video of him singing when seated in bouncer.Babies really love to hear their screeching sound.As Dimple said screeching is many times followed by a major spit up.

Hi Folks, joining the chewing bandwagin is Advaya. I was wondering if he is eternally hungry or wht as he loves to keep all his fingers in his mouth, but now I know....and as you said, all kids are the same. However, I have a query - Advaya just truend 3 months yesterdayisn' t it too early for teething??? I hv heard kids get their teeth close to 5-6 months.

Hey Sangeeta,
Sai does the same. He screams a lot...his daycare people say he keeps screaming and then goes sleep after getting tired :). I think he screams becoz of excitement. He screams when we go out and makes some cute noises :) I love it but sometimes he spits a lil after screaming...
I guess all the kids r same...
Love to the babies

Same with Sai, he wants to chew on his hands all the time and has started taking less milk than before and drools a lot...I called his doctor and she said he may be teething... she asked me to massage his gums which I do with a soft finger tooth brush and he loves it...
My coworker even suggested hylands teething pills and she said they work very well on her son. I bought them but have not started yet....
love to babies and moms
Dimple

I think a teething toy may help.Something which babies will love to chew on.som toys can be refridgerated and the coolness helps them.

Abhi also keeps his hands and fingers in his mouth all the time,if u bring ur finger nearby he tries to bite and chew it.These have been happening for more than a month.I really doubt if he will get teeth soon.Arjun also used to bite everything chew on everything but his first teeth came at 8 months.He started it by 4 months.
When teeth r going to come gums become red and swollen may be little hot also.After sometime u will see the gum is whitish due to erupting teet.With Arjun ,he is bleeding from gums when new tooth erupts now.Sometimes baby may also have a low fever and will surely be cranky.There is something called oragel which can be rubbed against gums to relieve pain.ask babys doctor.
I think babies like to put fingers in hand all the time.just see that his fingers r clean.Iam facing a problem with Abhi.When iam changing his dirty diaper,as soon as i open diaper his hands go to diaper and try to dirty his fingers and immediately he tries to chew his fingers.That will cause illness so iam trying to prevent his fingers. At times Abhi also bites bottle nipple,worst the breast also.

Babies r really smart.After sometime when they start crawling they will pickup minute things from ground and again that goes in to mouth.As u said kids r so cute.Whenever i see Abhi growing i recollect Arjun´ s baby days and how naughty he was.He is also kind of teething now.He lost his first baby tooth and got a new one.then he is getting his permanent molars.That time his gums were bleeding.He used to keep poking in his mouth due to irritation.
