Patient's question:
When do babies start teething? In recent days, a four-month-old baby doesn't like breastfeeding, often drooling from the corners of the mouth, and keeps blowing bubbles. What is the reason for not liking to breastfeed, constantly drooling from the corners of the mouth, and always blowing bubbles?Doctor's answer:
Generally, babies start teething around 6 to 10 months, but some may start as early as 4 to 10 months. So, it's possible that your baby might be teething now, and before teething, they may show signs such as excessive drooling, wanting things, poor appetite, and low fever.1: Since your baby might be teething, enhance care, ensure they drink plenty of water, and keep the mouth area clean to prevent conditions like eczema.
2: Next, check if your baby has any oral issues or digestive problems, such as a weak spleen or poor digestion. If they are blowing bubbles and not eating well, you can give them infant stomach-strengthening powder and probiotics to help regulate their digestion.
Wishing your baby healthy growth.
