All about teething

Today, we're diving into a topic that every parent eagerly awaits – the arrival of those tiny teeth in their baby's mouth. If you're wondering when do babies start teething and how our Teething Tamer can be your secret weapon, read on!

When do babies start teething?

The teething journey varies from baby to baby, but most little ones typically begin teething around six months. This is just a general guideline; some babies may start earlier or later. In rare cases, a few babies are even born with a tooth or two! Nature always keeps us guessing.

Here is a handy baby teething chart guide to indicate when those teeth may start to poke through.

Teething signs and symptoms:

  1. Drooling: Increasing saliva production is one of the first signs of teething. Keep those bibs handy! It can coincide with a rash on the cheeks and/or chin.
  2. Red cheeks: Bright red flushed cheeks are a common giveaway.
  3. Rubbing their cheek or pulling the ear: often on the same side as the erupting tooth.
  4. Chewing and biting: Babies love to chew on anything they can get their tiny hands on. Teething toys and rusks can be a lifesaver.
  5. Irritability: Teething can be uncomfortable, making your little one fussier than usual.
  6. Gum sensitivity: Gums may become red, swollen, and sensitive to the touch.
  7. Sleep disturbances: often disrupts sleep patterns.
  8. Looser stools: Increased saliva production can lead to looser bowel motions than usual and, to make matters worse, can contribute to nappy rash. If diarrhoea is severe or prolonged, or you are worried, please see a healthcare professional.
  9. Changed eating patterns: often disrupts eating patterns.
  10. Slight increase in temperature: however, if it jumps over 37-38C, then you may want to see a healthcare professional.
