Almost 4 weeks old - Teeth already?

Morning

My Daughter is 4 weeks old on Wed (:D ) - Anyway, the Health visitor confirmed last week that she has a tooth coming through at the back, on Sat it looked like another 2 coming through?

Is there anything we can give her incase of any teething probs? And is this normal for one so young?

Thanks...

Teething problems are usually solved by teething gel (i am currently using Calgel you can get bonjela and my friend swears by Ashton and parsons powders apparently this is a white powder that you rub into their gums I havent tried them. I think Calpol is only available from twomonths so you can't give that.
Yes its normal to teeth early unusual but normal my HV told me that babies can be born with teeth.:eek: :eek:
So it could have been worse

i think the ashton and parsons powders are ok from so young but not sure of any teething gels. Its either baby bojella or boots own one thats suitable from 3 months. If the teething is really bad a little bit of baby calpol or baby paracetamol will help. Poor mite, so small to get teeth but i know that some are actually born with them, eeek!

ashton parsons are brilliant! they're natural and relieve the fretfulness. and they are really cheap. my daughter had teeth trouble from 3 wks but my friends wee one had 3 teeth when she was born!!!

My cousin was born with 2 teeth coming through so it's not unheard of.

I hope your wee girl has an easy time as possible with them.

If you are lucky it may be that she sails through early teething without any trouble. My LO cut most of his teeth without me even noticing until they came through, it was only when he cut his last four that we had any indication that he was unhappy.
