Crying at bedtime

For the past several nights, my 3 mo old (going on 4 mos) has been crying
terribly when I put her down to bed for the night. In the past she would
quietly fall asleep. Everything checks out okay (clean diaper, fed,
burped). I don't understand what could be wrong. Is this normal for this
age or just for infants in general? Should I let her cry or go in to try to
console her? When I put her down for her naps, she doesn't cry like this.

Teething? DD got her first teeth around 4 months, and the only sign was
crying at bedtime. When we worked out the cause, we'd see how she went, but
after 15 mins we'd rock her to sleep in her bassinet/cot.
