Anyone elses toddler constantly drool?

Anyone else’s toddler drool constantly? He just turned 22 months old and he is a binky baby but only gets it for naps and bed but I noticed when he’s focused on playing he drools. I have to wipe his chin, he soaks shirts. He doesn’t drool when he eats, or sleeps. It’s just if he’s chewing on a toy or playing I notice it. I keep wiping it to almost annoy him and remind him he’s wet and needs to swallow. Just wondering if any other Moms have this going on with their toddler too

I drooled until I was a preteen and it was the worst lol, I’d be talking and drooling id have to stop mid sentence and suck all the spit back into my mouth :sob::sob:
Dr said I had overactive Salvatory glands lol

I now just have to swallow a lot and I still drool a whole puddle when I sleep :smiling_face_with_tear:

Totally normal…teething and distraction when playing etc. I would always put a bib on my babies to catch the drool and keep shirts and necks dry. Pat some cornstarch under his chin and on his neck to keep things dryer and not cause irritation.
