A. Hi. yes it's a sign of teething. during teething phase kids feel itching in the gums by the erupting teeth so kids place objects in oral cavity and bite over them to get relief form itching. please try to maintain proper cleanliness of the objects used by your child to prevent any kind of infection and loose motions.
