Black spot on baby's gums

I just noticed today that my almost 12 month old has a dark almost black spot on upper gum. It's also swollen. She's teething again, but I don't know for sure if that's a tooth? It's suppose to be white not black. Any ideas?

Re: Black spot on baby's gums

Nothing to worry about. It is from teething. She could have gently bumped that part of her gum and it is a bruise. It will go away. Seriously NOTHING to worry about! I know this one from experience.

They teeth from birth. I didn't know that until the dentist told me. Isn't that sad for them poor babies. She has quite a way to go...xxxx The longest and the worst are the eye teeth, the fangs.

Re: Black spot on baby's gums

The ones coming in are near where the eye teeth are gonna come in, there's a empty space for them from her other teeth and the new ones. Her pediatrician said "I thought she would have more teeth by now" saying that she wasn't teething so I didn't realize her mood change could be due to the teeth. She just saw him less than 2 weeks ago and one of the teeth has already erupted quite well. I barely noticed it til she yawned. She's been a handful all week long. Not sleeping well, being severely cranky and just getting over a cold :/
