It varies. Mine was 6 months when he got his. Some babies are born with teeth eventhough this is rare.

They are usually around 6 months old when they show signs of teething. Such as drooling, biting things. But my pediatrician told me that babies can start teething as early as 3 months. My son has been drooling like crazy and biting on anything he can for the last two months and he is 5 1/2 months old. Also they can show signs of teething for a couple of months before they even start cutting teeth.

Generally between 5 to 8 months. Could be a little earlier or a little later. When we had our antenatel 6 month re-union one girl had 6 teeth already so she started at 4 months. My son took about 7 to get his first 2 and now at 1 yr old has 6.

Every child is different...some are born with teeth, some don't get any until after their first birthday....on average, probably 6-10 months old.

it can be different for every baby...my sons started getting teeth at four months, my daughter Jenna started getting teeth just before turning four months but my daughter Brianna didn't start getting teeth until she was almost six months.

the doctors say 6 months is "average" but they are all different, my first got her first 2 teeth at 3 months and my second didn't get hers untill 8 months and they are both perfectly happy and healthy.

Each baby is unique. My older daughter got her 1st tooth at 3 months. Good luck. 2D
