Initial signs of teething

This entry was posted on Jan 15 2012

Milk teeth tend to emerge sooner in females than in males. The exact pattern and initial signs of teething appear to be hereditary. When and how teeth appear in an infant has no bearing on the health of the child.
Offering your baby a cold bottle of water can also help. If sucking on the bottle bothers your child, offer a cold cup of water. The water can also help replenish your baby’s fluid if they’re drooling a lot or have loose bowel movements.
Cold food has also been found to be helpful by some parents. Chilled applesauce, yogurt and pureed peaches may be more appealing to your baby and also more nutritious than a chilled teething ring.
