Teeth! When did the first come through?

[me23]

Hi, Thought it would be interesting to find out how old your LO's were when they got their first tooth?
my dd is 7 month still no sign of a tooth!

[fishie]

ouch, timely, my thumb is being chewed by nearly 9 month old ds, two bottom ones just come through - been swelling dribbling etc for about 4 months too.

[lou33]

About 3m for my kids

[WigWamBam]

Both bottom teeth came through at bang on 6 months, both bottom teeth a week later.

[WigWamBam]

both top teeth a week later ...

[sweetkitty]

2 days before 6 months for bottom two

[orangina]

my dd, 9+ months, still has no teeth.....

[jessicaandrebeccasmummy]

Jess's first tooth.... 9.5 months exactly! Second one a week later.

[LIZS]

4/5months for both.

DS got one bottom tooth at 9 months, and still had just the one until just after his first birthday. Now he suddenly has a gobful (at least 11)

My dd started getting her bottom 2 at 11 months. Her top 2 are just starting to come through and she is nearly 16 months.

Mind you I still had milk teeth at 14 and had to get them pulled out by the dentist as the adult teeth were coming out as well. I must have weird genes!

DS got his first at 15 months, and still at nearly two has only 5!

[wannaBe1974]

My Ds got his first tooth at 8 months. had 8 teeth by a year old but then slowed down a bit - only got his last tooth through last week and he's 3 now. Knew a woman from mother and toddlers who had a 2 year old who had no teeth yet - she was beside herself.

DD was 13 months when her first tooth arrived.

[mummytosteven]

10.5 months.

[Miaou]

at 18 weeks my ds's TOP tooth broke the skin!

It still hasn't descended any further, but can be seen (and felt) if you look in his mouth.

[me23]

wow, there's such variation isn't there!
got a question, how long does it take from when the tooth starts to come through for it fully come through? or does that vary widely as well? {smile]

[Cha]

5 months for dd, about 7 months for ds. Not nice for breastfeeding.

[cathyspam]

DS1 - 9 months DS2 - 7 months, but a friends little boy didnt have any teeth until 14 months!

[Clayhead]

About 16 weeks for both ds and dd.
The colic stopped, the teething started...oh happy days

[cathyspam]

oh and DS2 got his top 'fangs' before his front teeth - just in time for halloween too. he looked pretty weird for a while especially when he smiled - terrifying!!!

[Clayhead]

cathyspam - that happened to both of mine too. They looked weird!

[cathyspam]

oh good - glad i am not the only one who has spawned these vamprie babies!

[lucykate]

dd was 10mths when first one came through
ds is 7.5mths and no sign of any yet for him

[LeahE]

A week before 6 months for #1; #2 came in about 2 weeks later.
