What should you do when a 3-month-old is teething?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Although teething signs can be seen in a 3-month-old, most babies cut their first tooth between 4-7 months. During this period, babies may feel fussy due to pressure and soreness in their gums; the need to put hands and objects in their mouth increases.

To comfort your baby, you can offer a safe teether (preferably chilled in the refrigerator, not frozen). Letting the baby chew on a dampened clean cloth also helps. Gently massaging the gums with a clean finger can also be soothing. During this time, if fever rises above 38°C or the baby completely refuses to feed, don't blame the teeth and consult a pediatrician — teething usually causes mild discomfort; high fever may signal another condition.
