Hi all - my DD is 10 months, and in the last month has got her two bottom middle teeth through. She doesnt yet have her middle top teeth, but the one to the right has just appeared, and it looks like the one to the left of the middle two is about to make an appearance! All the books say this is not the 'right' order - but can anyone reassure me this is still normal/common enough??? Thanks!
Is there right order? Honestly? Because all 6 of mine have had theirs coming through in completely different ways. Infact dc6 is 13 months and still has not on tooth!!
DS didnt get his in the right order either, actually had his molars before his second pair of front bottom teeth came in
Speaking to others this is very common - even our dentist said so, but apparantly if teeth do come through "in the wrong order" Dc often have more trouble with the tething process.
i wasnt aware there was a right order for teeth to come in? my lil sis was born with 5 teeth my dd1 got hers quite late i think i cant remember what order they came in
Dd's teeth came through in that order too. Fairly well by the book apart from the fangs first then the middle top two. I have heard that it can make it more painful but DD didn't seem too bad.
yes, kittywise, there are perfect little diagrams showing how their perfect little teeth will pop through in a perfect little order (yes yes I know I am the OP and asked the question, but now a tad annoyed I let The Books worry me!!!).
Thanks for the reassurance everyone - shall look forward to DD's fang look for a while
Don't listen to the books at all. My ds got his first 2 bottom teeth as the books said around 7 months, then his two top canines last week, he's 9 months now and looks like a mini vampire!
I have another mini-vampire! Bottom middle two, followed by top canines, now he is cutting the top middles. He is 11 months and obviously hasn't read the books either!
