Of course, BJ at 3 months is no where near this stage yet (or so I hope). However, I think he's showing signs that his teeth are starting to come up. Here's what he has:
- He's ALWAYS drooling
- Warmer than usual
- Has slight diarrhea
- Slightly fussy (but heat could be the cause of this)
- Loves to chew on a cold rag
Well, I've always been pretty paranoid when it comes to illnesses. Not just for BJ but for myself as well. If I have one cough or sneeze, I will pick up the phone and call my doctor. I hate it when I call the doctor because I don't want to inconvenience her, but I don't want something to be wrong! So I called again today... and the nurse at the doctor's office said BJ shouldn't be teething until he's 5 or 6 months. So I let it go, thinking that I'm going nuts and being paranoid yet again.
Then, I got an email from Stephanie. She said her son started teething at 8 weeks! So there, Nurse Lady! I'm not going crazy. Maybe BJ really is teething.

It's possible! Every kiddo is different of course, so BJ just could be ahead of the curb in this respect. Keep an eye on those gums! lol Not like I had to tell you that... ;-)
ReplyDeleteaw he's a cutie. I know my boys all got their first tooth around 4 months. I've heard of babies being born with teeth so...could be. Following you from Social Parade Friday blog hop:http://angiewith2.blogspot.com/

Babies are tough! the first year for me is the worst. I don't know if he is teething but babies grow up fast so their whole body hurt at some point. He is sure cute!.

I have to admit...I may have stalked BJ's pictures a little bit...he's just so gosh-darned cute. I love the pic of him with the remote and in his bebepod!
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday from your newest follower.
caleb got his first teeth at 4 months and i think brynna's teething too....so he probably is! all babies are different and your mommy instincts are strong, no matter what the "general timeline" says!!

I have four and that sounds like teething to me. My 2nd son got his first tooth at 9wks. ALL kids are different no matter what anyone says. They all LEARN & GROW and different rates...That is the best thing I learned and really helped with the worrying

New follower from the social parade. My son started getting teeth and 4 months!! It wasn't fun, but it's been nice because he could eat solid foods sooner.

discoveringthemeinmommy - oh my gosh 4 at the same time??? That must've been painful for her!
ReplyDeleteKdBuggie Boutique - 4 months seems to be a pretty common age. BJ is almost there... I bet it really is teething. Eek. HJ and I are actually looking forward to the solid food stage! Seems fun!
