it might hurt your nipples a bit but it's certainly not the first of these I've heard of. Sounds pretty normal to me.


No babies develop at different stages. It is perfectly normal for a baby to be teething at that age.

My oldest had one when she was born lol

No. Not at all. Just means they will probably start getting their adult teeth early. Some babies are even born with a tooth and its called a "milk tooth" it has to come in some part of there life. 6 months or 6 weeks it dont make a difference the gum will still scrach them.


no but it's mingy!!


if your uncertain see your doctor but if it uncomfortable exspress your milk then bottle feed thats what i will be doing as my baby will more than likely have teeth as my partners othr children and he also had teeth at birth. Do what is comfortable to you. You child having teeth early won't do any harm. just make sure you brush with baby brush and water do not use tooth paste.

no no my friends baby got teeth at six weeks and he was ok also babys can be born with teeth unusual though
congratulations :)


its true that some babies are born with teeth, its nothing to worry about. I'm a neonatal nurse and i've seen many babies born with the beginnings of teeth mine had one when she was born. so to say the least i did not breast feed her. totally normal


no my baby had 2 teeth at 17 weeks and 2 more at 22 weeks, the only harm it will do is if your baby bits you it bloody hurts!


Not at all, our son who is now 4 and a half was born with 2 teeth, he's a healthy, bonny lad, very clever and not a bit shy.

Children get their teeth at different stages.
However, because your child got a tooth so early, you're going to have to be extra careful. NEVER put your child to bed with a bottle. not milk, juice, etc. Whatever the liquid, it will sit in the area of your child's mouth called the "vestibule" (the area between the gums and the cheeks) and cause decay to the teeth. This is known as "baby bottle mouth," and it is very sad.
Also, start cleansing your baby's mouth with a gause strip, or look into "Swiffies." They are meant for infants and toddlers and are a oral cleansing cloth.
Because your child has a tooth this early, this tooth could be more susceptable to decay because it will have been in the mouth so long. just make sure to start taking care of his/her mouth now, and then make sure that he/she gets into the habit when he is able to.
