When did you start brushing your baby's teeth?

DS is almost 8 months & had 6 teeth. We got him a tooth brush bug I'm not sure when to start brushing them. He just shuts his mouth & wriggles off when I try.

Began as soon as first teeth appeared. Had a dinky brush to fit on finger. Also had one with a wide handle with thumb hole for easy baby grip so they could have a go themselves.

At 4 months when first tooth came. He is now 2 and have had no issues...yet!

As soon as he had a tooth. You don't have to push it when they are little, some nights ds2 gets a good brush, others he isn't in the mood and I just let him chew his brush.
