Teething is one of the great milestones of your baby’s development and some babies will find the process easy, while others can find it more uncomfortable.
On average the first tooth comes in during the seventh month, although it can arrive as early as three months, as late as a year, or in rare cases even earlier or later. The symptoms of teething vary from child to child. The list below shows symptoms that a teething baby may experience.
Going swimming with your baby can be a magical time for the whole family. It used to be recommended that you should wait until baby had their 1, 2 and 3 month immunisations, but now health officials say this isn’t necessary.
To get baby to enjoy splashing around in the water you can try making bath time fun. You can do this by gently splashing water over their body and moving them through the water, get them to move towards their bath time toys to give them a goal to get to, this will encourage baby to kick and splash around as they try and grab their toy.
