When does teething start to hurt?

[beanster]

Just wondered what your experiences of starting teething were? Holly has got a definite whiteish ridge on her bottom gum that is more obvious than yesterday when it was more of an indent if that makes sense. She is dribbling and has a rash all round her chops so we r assuming this means the first little tooth is starting to make an appearance! How long might it take and when will it start to hurt?

We r hoping it's not a false tooth alert lol. Nice to actually have a real mum say their lo didn't suffer cos i wasn't sure whether to believe the books! How long did the actual teeth take to push through?

From the first sign of dribble and white gums was about a week for Owen. We have two bottoms then two tops and now in waiting for the next two bottoms!( he has white gums now, muchos dribble and has been cranky) I find Owen is very grizzly about 2 days around the time the teeth are breaking through x

Caleb seems to have been teething forever!!! Ever since he was about 2 months old. He started off dribbling loads, then we had a few weeks of screaming, we had to give him calpol and bonjela to calm him down. And still no sign of teeth! 2 months later he's still really gnawing on his hands, but we can't even see a white dot, bless him, think it's going to be a while! xx

My LO didn't show any symptoms before her two bottom teeth came through, they were just there one day! But since then she's been showing teething symptoms on and off for a few weeks and still no more teeth, so looks like every tooth might be different with her at least.
