sounds like teething.... bonjela (gel). I find Nelson's teetha granules fabulous (homoeopathic). My baby has been doing that since 8 or 9 weeks - no sign of teeth yet though - sure they will show soon enough!

Millie was the same, she is now 6 months and her two bottom teeth have just come through.

Alexa is 8 weeks and started teething at 7 weeks!! drooling everywhere chewing on my fingers and hers chewing on bottle nipple instead of drinking, it is crazy early but this is what is happening!!

Caitlyn chews on her bottle, and my boob, and she gets really irriated sometimes and pulls at me.. Think it's a boredom thing though.

Erica does the same thing. I asked the doc and she said she doesn't feel anything coming through yet, but I think that some babies can feel the teeth in the gums more than others. I just let Erica chew on my finger a lot of the time.

I saw those early teether dummies some of you girls have from the UK. Made by Tommee Tippee. You might want to try those since teethers are probably too big for his mouth. In fact, if anyone can pick me up one, I'd be happy to paypal the amount of the teether of postage to anyone who can get one. I've looked on ebay and cant find them.

Jack is going through this too - he tries to eat anything he can get his hands on! He seems to like the bonjela teether you put in the fridge - which he is eating in my avatar - & the tommee tippee teething dummies which are good for getting teething gel onto the gums - I have dentinox which is suitable from birth, but have only used it twice. Mostly he prefers to chew his fist/fingers though.

coz the teething granules are very soothing as well. I find that Ryan stops being cranky literally about 10 seconds after I put them on his tongue! Miracle stuff

Yes he has terrible mood swings - goes from happy & smiley to screaming the place down if he is tired or hungry & it is taking forever for him to settle to sleep properly - he keeps waking himself
I am going to get some of those powders next time I go into town as they sound as though they may help
