My daughter is incredibly fussy. She can neither sit nor lie down, but her gums seem calm. Right now, she's lying down, spitting out her pacifier and shaking her head over her fist as if to scratch her gums. She also grabs my hand angrily and rubs it on her gums. I won't even mention the river of drool down to her belly button – that might not mean anything.
To be honest, this time everything looks confusing. With my son, I breastfed until he was a year and…

At our appointment, they didn't say anything about my gums or teeth... Maybe they're starting to swell a little? That's what mine does, he puts everything in his mouth, growls angrily, and bites.

Growth spurt at 4 months, there was a fussy period, and teeth came in closer to 8 months :)

Gums can appear calm on the outside, but movement can start inside, which also causes discomfort.

Diana Fabrikova My son also seemed to be teething all the time, but his first tooth actually came in around 8 months old.

Same here! A month ago, our pediatrician said her gums were swollen, but no teeth in sight yet. We're trying out teethers, but she hasn't really taken to any of them. She still prefers her fist, though! :)

Could be teething, or maybe something else. We're also sleeping poorly right now and furiously sucking on fists. One teether has even been used, and the drool is a waterfall, it's pouring out 😅
It might be a little early for teeth for us, but maybe preparation is starting. My daughter's first tooth came out at four and a half months. I don't know how it will be here.

Teething might be the cause, but the teeth are moving deep within the gums. Our little one has been chewing for a while too, but nothing is visible externally yet.

Both hands are in her mouth, and she's drooling buckets! Bibs can't keep up. No teeth yet
