My baby is only one month old (today!) and
I noticed a little white bud in her gums.
Top right fairly far back. Is it possible
she could be teething already? She also
seems to be drooling more than
usual...Anyone else come across this?

While the average time for the appearance
of the first teeth is between five and
seven months of age, there is a wide
normal variation of timing. The teeth
might come in as early as one month of
age, or they might wait until a child is
almost one-and-a-half-years old. Anywhere
in this range can be normal.
Generally lower teeth come in before upper
teeth, and generally girls' teeth erupt
earlier than those of boys (much like with
everything else).
Front lower teeth usually come in first.

It could very well be a tooth. Babues can
have teeth in utero. My angel makes 3
months on .Saturday and she's been
drooling ang gnawing on her hands allll
day!!
Good luck..I hear teething time's a
b*tch!!
