6 month old baby teething symptoms

The healthy development of a baby is a process that needs attention, because most babies will encounter some problems during this period that make parents feel very confused. For example, the phenomenon of a baby's teeth growing is something that is taken more seriously. Generally speaking, babies start to grow teeth at the age of six months, and there will be some signs of growth. Let's take a look at the symptoms of teething in a 6-month-old baby.

When the baby's first few teeth come out, he will feel very uncomfortable, with swollen and painful gums, and he may have diarrhea, low-grade fever, red face and bottom, and irritability. These symptoms may last for more than a week, and will gradually get better once the teeth break through the ground.

Babies will have some abnormal performance during teething, and different babies will have different performances. Generally speaking, the symptoms of baby teething mainly include the following nine aspects:

1. Pain: Your baby may show signs of pain and discomfort.

2. Bad temper: The discomfort caused by teething can make the baby bad tempered and cry a lot, which is especially obvious one or two days before teething.

3. Red cheeks: Mothers may notice red spots on their baby’s cheeks.

4. Drooling: The excessive saliva produced during teething will cause the baby to drool frequently.

5. Chewing, biting or chewing things: If you put anything near the baby's mouth, he may do the above actions.

6. Swollen gums: Check your baby's mouth to see if there is any redness or swelling on the gums.

7. Restless sleep: Your baby may wake up in the middle of the night and seem fussy, even though he had been sleeping soundly before.

8. Increased body temperature: Teething can cause the body temperature to rise slightly, so your baby may feel a little hotter than usual.

9. Butt pain: Although we don’t know the reason yet, some mothers have noticed that babies are more likely to suffer from diaper rash and may have loose stools when they are teething.

If you find that there are faint white threads on the baby's gums, you can use your index finger to rub this part of the gums with a little force. This can help relieve the itching and pain, and can also help the little teeth come out as soon as possible.
