My 3 month old is producing a lot of saliva suddenly and sucking his hands. I’m assuming he’s teething. I’m concerned though as he seems to cough on his saliva. Is this normal?

Yep mine does too!

I asked the health visitor about this and she said its not teething its because their speech muscles are developing! Mine dribbles everywhere and is a right chatterbox now

All really good signs of development! It may not be teething just yet but you could check his gums. The coughing is also a good sign he’s getting his gag reflex ready for when the solids start :)

Thank you all! That’s really reassured me 🥰

Mine's doing the same & is a puddle of dribble - his fingers were actually wrinkly earlier like when you've been in the bath too long!
