Just discovered to my horror that ds has two wiggly teeth. he is just 4.5yrs old and thought they fall out only after 6 yrs. He got these two (ones that are wiggling now) at 2.5 months of age, is that why he is losing them early?

My dd lost about 5 teeth before she was five.
it's normal

DS3 lost his first tooth at age 3. I was a bit taken aback - especially as one of his teachers at nursery was a former dental nurse and was very shocked that I hadn't rushed him straight to the dentist (bad mummy) - but the next tooth was clearly already pushing through.

Children lose their teeth at different ages, so I really wouldn't worry too much.
