    What you need to watch out for

    1. Your baby will show visible symptoms of discomfort when she is teething. It could be possible that your little one is cranky than before and refrains from talking feed like before.

    2. Drooling is yet again a prominent symptom of teething. Keep wiping the drool with soft clothes.

    3. Putting everything in mouth and trying to chew also indicates your baby is teething. You baby does that to sooth her gums. This also relieves her from the niggling sensation that she might feel during her teething days.

    4. Your baby may also develop slight fever and cold during teething. Check with the doctor if the symptoms are more severe and any medical attention is needed. Otherwise, teething is a natural process that happens in due course of time.
