When to brush?

[Yorky]

DS finally cut first tooth today (9 months) and I wonder when is the best time to brush his tooth? ATM his bedtime routine is bath, pjs, feed and story then bed, I don't particularly want to brush his teeth after his bedtime feed although it seems silly to brush them at bathtime then give him his milk. Any suggestions?

I used to brush at bathtime and then do bedtime feed. Silly perhaps, but logical and it worked for us. Start as you mean to go on, I thought.

I would do it after his feed

With both of mine, I had same routine as you, and slotted teeth brushing inbetween feed and story. Makes sense to me - and both adapted fine. If they're having bedtime drink whilst listening to story, we just go and do it afterwards.

We have just started doing DS3's teeth after his milk. The added benefit to him (apart from to his teeth) is that it means he goes down awake and has to self settle.

OK, so fit around the routine, nothing hard and fast, I can do that.
Presumably as he gets older he will have his bedtime drink downstairs so a bathtime brushing will become after drink?
I introduced his bedtime story to stop him eating himself to sleep, and give him chance to burp. When do they stop waiting up with wind?
Thanks all
