Newborn Teething?

Question

Is it possible for a newborn to be teething? My son has been screaming uncontrollably when he’s not sleeping or nursing. One of the times he was crying I noticed a white bump on his gum. My husband felt in his mouth and said it feels like a tooth is coming in. I plan on calling his dr Monday but I’m wondering if this is even possible.

Answer

Could be. Some babies are even born with teeth already.

Answer

My daughter was born with teeth, but they were clearly visible at birth. Maybe he has colic.

Answer

I would call your doctor so they can gauge if its another issue. Its not impossible to be teething but its unlikely compared to other more common issues such as reflux. If you are formula feeding it could be bottles causing tummy troubles,  the same if you're breastfeeding they could be sensitive to your diet or not getting enough milk. For the first month my little one was pretty gassy and fussy and cried everytime he had to poop and was pretty fussy in the evenings.

Answer

Totally possible

Mine did at 11 weeks
