DD's tooth is ultra wobbly and hurting - should we pull it out?!!!

Worried about it falling out in her sleep or at school

i wouldn't in case it hurts her!

but when i was little i used to pull my own out!

it's hanging by a thread but I'm not allowed to touch!

Much hysteria in our house!

ooh, no no! Just the thought is making me feel ill.

I pulled ds1's first one out as it was so wobbly that it was affecting his eating and the gum was red and inflamed. He asked me to do it.

I used a paper napkin to get a good grip on it -- teeth are slippery

good luck

if she doesn't want you to touch it then don't!
