canines before front teeth ?

[fredly]

My 8 months old dd cut her first teeth at 3mths. Nothing happened after that until a few days ago when I noticed that she's now cutting her upper canines !! Is this normal ? Surely she should be cutting her upper front teeth first ?! Poor darling, she's going to look like a vampire !!

Don't know if it's normal or not but I had 2 vampire-like babies!!

It soon went though, when the middle teeth came through. Still, got some piccies to show them when they're older...

i am actually thinking my ds, 9mths, is cutting molars and he only has in two front bottom teeth, but it looks raw at that particular point.

maybe it happens

Yes - I grew my canines before my front teeth, as yes I looked like a ittle vampire (although if i do say so myself quite a cute one!)

[SoupDragon]

Not canines but both DSs cut the outer two front teeth before the middle two. Cute little vampires

[Twiglett]

yep DD too - we called her the 'vampira the bat baby'

Yes I had a little vampire too. Very cute but he's got the middle ones now. Make the most of the time when those teeth don't meet - the biting is less painful.
