Hi,
My son will be 3 months in 2 days and I've noticed the last few days he's been grizzly and crying a lot (which is very unusual for him as he only cries when he's hungry). He's been inconsolable (sp?), even when I try to hold him and comfort him, but I hadn't even considered he was teething until last night. I've noticed he's been dribbling (a lot) and shoving his fists in his mouth, along with the bib, his dummy (which he rubs against his gums when I put it in his mouth), my shoulder, his rattles, (practically anything). Today I checked his gums and sure enough the bottom gums are white (especially where the fangs are meant to grow), and his lower gums are very hard.
Is there anything anyone can suggest I can do to help relieve the pain?, as I've been told the teething gels are no good, and he still doesn't have full control of his hands so the rattles and teethers don't last very long in his mouth.
