My son was 6 weeks and 5 days when his first tooth appeared. We are breast-feeding and bottle-feeding him. When he was a week old we saw what looked like teeth on his gums, but the doctor said that it was a cyst. Last week I was giving him a bath and noticed that my son had something in his mouth. That turned out to be skin from where his tooth is now. People didn't believe me until I took pictures and posted them on my facebook.

My Aunt told me that my cousin was born with two teeth already popped through the gums so I am thinking your child may very well be teething!

My kids had their first teeth at 2 months, my nephew had 2 teeth at 1 month, and my niece who just passed away was born with 2 teeth partially in!  Some babies are born with them, some take longer.  

=)  But he'll really enjoy nawing on your clean finger!  That helps the gums break and his tooth or teeth break through!  Oh and I breastfed both my kids with teeth, and it hurts the first week they have teeth, but you get used to it and over it!  It's more of an awkward feeling.

It's possible.  There have been cases where babies are born with teeth - can you imagine?  My granddaughter started teething in her 3rd month, but still hasn't popped out a tooth yet and she is 8 months old.  Poor thing....I wish it would appear already.
