All babies by the time they are between the ages of 4 months to 1 year old, will start to show teething signs. Teething in babies is not a comfortable and novel experience for them. Their moods would change, and the once gentle little angel in your arms will suddenly cry at various intervals during day and night. They would choose to stay with you wherever you go, and would refuse to step down from the comfort of your arms.
Your perfect little baby is just the most adorable thing in the world, so it will definitely come as a surprise to many when the little angel turns into a cranky chewing monster. Suddenly your baby not only chews on everything he gets his hands on and drives you crazy with his excessive drooling, but he also keeps you awake at night. Such is the scenario when your little one begins teething, and if you’re not careful then you may have to deal with teething rash pretty soon.
Many new parents become worried when their 8-month-old baby hasn’t shown any signs of teething yet. Seeing their neighbor’s 5-month-old child showing a couple of teeth with each smile worries them the more. This would often prompt them to consult with their pediatrician, hoping to get reassurance that there’s nothing wrong with their child.
