My 5-m.o. Baby keeps on gnawing. Is it a sign that a tooth is about to sprout?
Yes, if she's gnawing on her mother's breast or bottle, she is probably teething. But take note that your child is in the stage of exploration so also putting objects to her mouth and chew on them. I've learned a lot of facts about teething from this site: http://www.parents.com/baby/health/baby-teeth/baby-teeth-frequently-asked-questions/ One important tip taken: always put on bib on your baby or have a clean towel within your reach - she will surely drool most of the time due to this milestone.

Parents think of teething as the few days of swelling, discomfort, and irritability before a baby's tooth erupts, but tooth development actually begins before birth. Primary or "baby" teeth form below the gum line around the sixth week of pregnancy, and they're covered by hard enamel during the third to fourth month. Permanent or "adult" teeth also begin developing at this time.
