coartney some babies are born with teeth they are i think called natal teeth, if they come out within 30 days of birth they are called neonatal teeth . it is 100%possible that braden is teething. i think xylea is teething also because she always bites on her fingers....

here are some symptoms

What Are Symptoms of Teething?
Symptoms include:

Increased irritability
Placing objects or fingers in the mouth and biting down on them
Increased saliva or drooling
Loss of appetite or becoming choosy about foods
Tender and swollen gums
Rash on cheeks or redness in the area of the cheeks near the affected gums
Restlessness
Ear pulling, which may be a sign of teething or possibly an ear infection (make an appointment to have your child seen by your doctor or pediatrician)
Teething does not result in fever, vomiting, or diarrhea. If your child experiences these problems, contact your doctor. ↑
