Does a 3-month-old have itchy gums?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor
Gum itching cannot occur in a 3-month-old. Teething usually begins 4-7 months. The excessive drooling, hand-to-mouth behavior, and fussiness seen at 3 months are most often part of normal development — the baby explores hands and mouth, salivary glands become active. Teething itching to suspect gum itching is premature; offering a pacifier or chilled (not frozen) teether at this stage usually provides no added benefit. If the baby seems uncomfortable, has fever, or struggles with feeding, don't blame teething — consult a pediatrician first.
