My kids starting teething around 3-4 months too. One thing I did was get a soft baby washcloth and wet it, and put it in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes. (to get it real cold) then give it to him/her to chew on. (of course, watch them closely with it)-it seemed to make it a lot better. Also, an old remedy is to get a little small bottle of "rock and rye" at the liquor store...I know this sounds crazy, and rub a little on their gums. That really worked!! (my grandmother used to do that with my mom). Hope this helps!!

Well about 3-4 months they start drooling alot because the teeth are starting to move upward so there is not any pain only drool.then about 6-8 months is when the teeth will start trying to break through the gums and man does that hurt.
Buy some baby tylenol and some junior abosol it works better than baby orejel. When the teeth starts hitting the gums your baby could start getting a fever. Its normal.

My daughter started to cut teeth about 3 months old and had her first set of teeth by the time that she was 4 1/2 months old.

On average, a baby gets his first tooth between 5 and 12 months. But some get it earlier and some later. And some babies are teething for a long time (several months) before the first tooth actually arrives.

My daughter had 2 teeth at 10 weeks old and started teething a month before that. 3 months is not unusual.

my kids all started around 6 months but it can happen earlier. baby's drool even when they're not teething though. some babies are really big droolers. and all babies put everything they can get their hands on in their mouths. it's one way of learning about the world. check out what to expect the first year. it's a really good book that tells you what to expect each stage.

they can start teething as early as 3 months but it could take up to 6 months or longer for the tooth to actually cut through. my son started teething right before he turned 3 months old. he's now a lil over 4 months old and i think he's starting to cut his first tooth now. hyland's teething tablets works great for the pain.

Mine were around 5 months, but I know of a baby who started around 4 months and another at around 3 months.
