Yes, it is. My sons did that. Then once they pop through, they don't stop. And the drooling isn't as bad.flowerforyou

depends on which teeth and how old she is.....

my son's eye teeth thats all the have done in the past six months, but his front 2 shot threw in a day, his molars took a while but they ended up coming all the way up....

My sons had their eye teeth in first. They looked like little vampires! Every child is different! It is normal!

Cutting teeth can be tough but something that used to help my kids was taking a big old carrot out of the refridge good and cold; peel it, then score ridges in it so when little one is knawing on it it is kind of rough and you will be surprized how fast them little razors will pop out of the gums. Fair warning if you value your fingers keep them out of those little pirania's mouth. lol.

yes it's normal,popcicles help to numb the gums and help them break through and those liquid filled rings you can freeze or just refrigerate
plenty of baby orajel and tylenol to will help them sleep and some babys run a little fever
while there teething just give them some tylenol and make sure it doesn't get to high
my X never sat up with my daughter through teething or ear infections in fact she's only taken her to the doctor once her whole life
but after it took me over 14 years to have her
i don't mind i guess thats why w'ere so close
anyway,hope this helps

For General information; Sometimes Infants that take phenobaritol (usually for febrile seizures) has a side effect of making the gums harder to cut teeth through.

i wont use baby orajel on a child, it can affect the gag reflex. pure vanilla extract works wonders for teething, they like the flavor and it numbs them without affecting their gag reflex
