Teething one month old?

My one month old is getting two bottom teeth in. How do you soothe sore gums for a one month old? Can I use the same stuff you would with an older baby? I have never been around a baby so young that is cutting teeth. They are already starting to pop through the gums. She started getting them in at 2 weeks.

    Wow! That certainly is early. I think you can still use the numbing creams that you use for babies who teeth when they are a few months older. Talk to your doctor to make sure. You can use cold items to sooth her, I rubbed the gum with an unopened freezie for my babies, or even just run your finger over her gums.
