Mine had teeth by 5 months old. He started slobbering with red swollen gums at 3 months and his dr said it was ok. So I would put some origel on those gums, give her some motrin (in my opinion it works better than tylonol) and teething tablets. My kids lived off from those. And remember, it may not be a whole lot easier but after those first ones come thru (top and bottom) the teeth seem to come thru easier.

My son started cutting his teeth when he was around 4 1/2 monthhs old, so it totally is possible

Every baby is different. Some are even born with teeth. My son was about three months old when he got his first teeth, but my daughter was almost 10 months old before she got hers. They say that the longer it takes for them to come in, the healthier they will be.

Yes thats what my mother said too, but it is odd because i got my first tooth she said when i was 5 months old and my teeth are perfect and my sister and my brother got theres really late and they both had to have braces. So you are right every baby is different. Thanks for posting
