Being a parent for the first time, you will inevitably be anxious about any problems that arise during your child’s growth. Take tooth growth as an example. Under normal circumstances, the baby will have the first baby teeth around 6 months old. However, many times the baby's teeth are not so obedient, either out early or late, which makes the new parents very nervous. Let’s talk about the baby’s teething!
First of all, let’s popularize the differences in the baby’s teething time, which is due to various factors such as individual differences, genetic factors, and chewing ability. Some babies may have their first tooth at 4 or 5 months, while some babies may only start to teeth at 10 or 12 months. These are normal phenomena, so parents don’t have to worry too much. It is necessary to remind everyone that if the baby is over one year old and has not seen his first dental tooth erupt, he needs to go to a regular hospital for oral examination to clarify the reason.
Careful observation
If the baby has these symptoms, it may have to grow teeth!
1. Agitation is easy to cry: When the baby wants to grow teeth, because the baby needs to slowly push the gums, the baby will feel more or less discomfort during this process, which makes it easier to cry. As parents, you should understand your baby and try to avoid blaming your child too harshly.
2. Frequent drooling: Babies will love drooling for a while, but if you observe carefully, you will find that when the baby is going to teeth, the saliva will be more intense. At this time, parents need to pay attention to wipe it in time to keep the skin around the baby's mouth clean and dry to avoid saliva rash.
3. Like to bite: During the eruption of baby teeth, there will be slight discomfort in the gums. In order to relieve this discomfort, the child will start to bite some harder toys. So at this time, parents can prepare gum for their children, and ensure that all items that may be in the mouth of the child are hygienic and clean, clean and disinfect regularly, or even replace them.
In addition to the above situations, children may also experience anorexia, fever, poor sleep when they grow teeth. I hope that new parents will not be overly anxious, be more tolerant and understand, and help their babies pass this period smoothly.
