When did your baby get first tooth?

[Cosmogirl]

Hi,

Just wondering when your DCs got their first tooth? My DD is 7 months and one week and seems to have been teething for a while. Today we have had rivers of drool, lots of biting down and inconsolable crying! When is it likely one will pop through??

DD1 was 6 months, DD2 was 5 months; but I know plenty of little ones who don't get any until nearer 1.

DS1 & 2 got first ones around 8 months, DS3 who is just 11 months has got 4 this week.

2 bottom middle ones, one more advanced than the other and one of the front middle ones and one next to it to the side.

I'm still waiting and DD is one tomorrow!

DS1 8 months
DS2 10 months - then popped 8 teeth in 10 days, whilst on holiday, it was hell!
DS3 16 weeks

One of those things not worth stressing about - teeth come when they come. Dentition is not suitable for competitive parenting !

DD was 13 months, but seemed to have on/off teething symptoms from about 3 months!

DS1 - 4 months
DS2 - 11 months.

But they can drool and be crabby for a looooooong time (like, months) before any tooth actually appears, there's a lot of gum for them to get through before they break the surface.
