Bella is doing the sane thing.. Drooling beyond belief and hands are constantly in her mouth... as for tummy time.. it is the only was she will sleep..(on her tummy) so she is on her tummy al of the time.. she picks herself right off the matress.. head and shoulders

We have only tried giving our daughter tummy time a few times in the past couple of weeks. She seems to like it but gets irritated after about 3mins or so. And yes, drooling a LOT. I read somewhere that it's normal for babies this age to do that, although it's not always a sign of teething. She has also begun to put everything she can get her hands on in her mouth which makes me extra careful not to put stuff within her reach.

We have been trying the tummy time with our dghtr too, but I don't think that she is ready yet. We will lay her down for just a couple minutes, and then try again. She has started drooling pretty bad too, we have to change out a lot of bibs lately. I think she is teething. My friend said that their teeth will descend and ascend multiple times in their gums, causing pain and drooling, until they finally pop out! Good luck!
