Question 1

when do babies usally start drooling?

Accepted Answer

2 Months: At around 2 months your baby's salivary glands will start to work and your baby will begin to drool. This does not mean, however, that your baby is teething. Teeth start coming in a few weeks later. You will be going through a lot of bibs during this period so get ready!

Question 2

what nerological disease cause drooling n infant?

Accepted Answer

Most babies drool: Drooling is part of the routine for most infants & toddlers. They constantly put fingers in their mouth & drooling is normal. After  they get past some of the habit of sucking on fingers they seem to stop. Kids drooling a lot after this point may have issues like cerebral palsy.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

Yes: Drooling is a very common sign of teething.  Make sure you go to the pediatric dentist for regular check-ups and ask them anything you may have concerns or questions.

Question 4

Accepted Answer

Yes it is.: Babies often start drooling at this age even though they may not have any teeth appear for a month or more. If your baby seems to have difficulty swallowing or breathing with the drooling, that could be a problem &amp; you should call your doctor.

Question 5

my 12 week old is drooling a lot! my other two kids did not drool so much or at all at this age. is something wrong?

12 week olds drool: This is quite typical for a 12 week old to really drool.  Perhaps she is starting the process of teething a bit earlier than your other babies?  Nothing to worry about!

Question 6

my almost 7 months old baby's head is hot. he is drooling excessively and hi appetite is reduced but he breastfeeds very well. what could be the issue?

Accepted Answer

Hard to know: The infant head is ~ 1/5 of their body surface &amp; where they release heat readily in normal body temperature control.Drooling is often just because the don't have the social taboo not to. I don't use these symptoms as a sign of anything specific.

Question 7

10 weeks baby moves her head to right and left several times while i try her to get sleep at nights. she also drooling while awake. is it normal?

Sounds normal: Babies do what they do while settling.They also drool because they make spit and have no social burden of having to hide it.It is not seizure activity or abnormal in any way.

Question 8

my 13 year old son drools a lot while sleeping, has been drooling since he was a baby, has no disorder or any condition just seems to have excessive saliva, what could be the cause?

Accepted Answer

Inbox consultation: Healthtap offers an inbox consultation service. Please check her tonsilar size and consider uploading a photo of the posterior pharynx. If there is crowding, sometimes drooling may occur. Chronic nasal congestion, GERD, and salivary gland conditions should also be considered. Monitor her temperature and please follow up with her pediatrician.

Question 9

my 1 month old baby keeps drooling/ releasing spit from her mouth. worse when she's awake. should i be worried?

Accepted Answer

Not particularly : Babies have no social conscience and as such they have no personal reason not to drool if/when they feel like it. Increases may represent irritation within the mouth but it is also normal. She will decide to swallow her drool as she gets older.
