She just wasn't herself this weekend. I know that if she is teething it can be months before a tooth pops up. So hard. I just wish I knew how to make her feel better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-i-know-if-lo-is-teething#post-1008491 Sun, 11 Aug 2013 17:50:49 +0000 hilsy85 1008491@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Honestly, starting at 5 months, if LO was fussy, we were like, "Oh he's teething". He started drooling a ton, chewing on EVERYTHING, rubbing his gums, etc. He didn't get a tooth til 9 months. Not to say she's not teething right now, but there's no way to know, and teething can be a looong process. </p> <p>The only sign I noticed right before his tooth popped up was that he had a runny nose and was grabbing at his ears. </p> <p>If you think she's uncomfortable you can try natural remedies, like camilia or teething tablets. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-i-know-if-lo-is-teething#post-1008487 Sun, 11 Aug 2013 17:49:28 +0000 Smurfette 1008487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Stupid question but how do you know? She is drooling a lot, increase in spit up, fuzzier, and will just start crying for no reason. DH and I think we feel something when we rub her gums but we don't know what we should be feeling or what they should look like. </p>
