FOUR-MONTH
CHECKUP
Teething
- Teething
may begin at this age.
- As the teeth
come to the surface, the infant can experience some pain
and discomfort. Numbing drops and acetaminophen (Tylenol)
can be used as well as teething rings or other safe objects.
- Although
this has been debated it seems that teething can cause
a low-grade fever and loose stools.
- Usually
the bottom front two teeth will appear first, followed
by the top front two.
- The average
age for this is nine months although it can happen anytime
during infancy.
