Babies usually teeth @ 6months. However, there are stories of babies born with teeth!! (scary image). Do you know when you or your partner started teething - these things can be hereditary. It seems early - have a look at her gums to see if you can see any teeth coming through. Teething symptoms (red cheeks, drool, chewing etc) can start a good few months before the teeth actually break the surface. She is too young to hold a teether - so maybe let her chew on the end of a clean finger to relieve symptoms. Also, lots of bibs to clear the drool!! ;o)

Maybe, some babies are born with TEETH. She also maybe teething and some times no teeth come in for 2 or 3 months. So some take a long time and others take no time at all! G-L

My daughter started to teeth when she was 1 month and still has not cut her 1st tooth and she's 4 months. She is chewing on everything and drooling too. My husband was born with a tooth, it's common.

my boy did the same thing. turned out not to be teeth but a harmless gum cyst. just a little white spot on his gums that bugged him. dr said it's the precursor to teeth but he's 4 months now and no teeth yet. every once in a while he'll get fussy and drooly for a couple weeks then be fine for a while.
try a cold washrag. or freeze a wet wash rag and give him that.

I can't believe your baby is teething already. I don't know what to tell you but this sounds like something else is going on. Talk to her doctor she just might be trying something new all babies drool from time to time

Many babies are born with teeth. Just take the baby to see the doctor.

Some babies are born with teeth. Its not uncommon for them to teeth at any time during their infancy.
