Congratulations: Sounds like your child is getting her first of 20 baby teeth. She will be fussy, drool a lot, and may even run a slight fever, till the tooth comes in. Give her something to chew on (teething ring). Chill it first in the refrigerator--soothing. Don't forget, 1st dental appointment age 1, preferably with a pediatric dental specialist (for the same reasons you see a pediatrician).
