He's had a lot more drool lately and he keeps chomping on his little fists and putting them as far into his mouth as possible!!!! Could this be early teething? When does teething "normally" happen? Thanks

Teething normally starts between 6-9 months but there is a wide variety of normal patterns. It's also dictated by hereditry patterns so if either yourself or your partner teethed early or late then chances are your little one will too (for instance I didn't get my first teeth until 13 months and my son got his at 11 months). At this age (10 weeks) it's hard to tell the difference between teething and the onset of that pleasant developmental stage where they start drooling and sticking their hands in their mouths. My son went through a similar stage at this age but then didn't get his first teeth until 11 months.

Every baby is different! Don't forget to buy baby orajel and those all natural teething tablets that dissolve in their mouths!

every one in 2000 babies are born with a tooth in there mouth so don't worry everything is almost always normal with babies just get prepared and keep the motrin and orijel handy. good Mommy skills
