If there is also excessive drooling, mild fever, loose motions and irritation in gums, then it must be teething. You can massage the gums with clean finger or cotton cloth and give a chilled teether to chew on to soothe the gums.
If baby is facing discomfort in passing stool, then there is indigestion problem. Give fiber rich foods alongwith lots of fluids.
Bring variety in foods and do not overfeed.
