Poll: Teeth?

[bkroxfan003]

How many teeth does your LO have? We've got 6 over here and she's not even officially 5 months old for another 2 days. It's crazy!

[toratoratori]

Still none! But so much drooling and chewing and crying. It's the worst!

[davidbowiesbulge]

None. DD1 did not get her first tooth until she turned 1. I hope it is the same way with DD2

[wandsandwine]

I voted none. He's been working on his bottom front 2 for 3 months now.

A girl at work told me that formula fed babies get teeth sooner than BM fed babies I was curious if anyone else has heard this?

[blckroses]

0 teeth here, but a lot of drooling and chewing on everything. She's also refusing to sleep and DH thinks it's teething related.

Thanks! That's not anything I'd ever heard before but she said it like it was common knowledge

[mrsnorris]

I'm hoping it's still a while for us. She already somehow bites on my nipples painfully while nursing so I'd LOVE it if she waited until she was one to get teeth! Plus, I love her gummy smiles.

Yeah, my sister had them x-ray her at 18 months to make sure there were teeth in there.  She got here teeth like 5 at a time once she started.

[sweetpies]

None here. I don't even see anything on the gum line.

Wow. You learn something new every day! Was teething still awful at three?

[Chrisse]

Zero.

[silvermelody]

Zero. One of my friends had both of her kids pop two teeth by 4 months so I'm glad I'm not in her shoes.

[sjshark]

None yet, but I have a feeling they will be here any day now.

[prairiegirl]

None yet but his bottom two are real close to popping through. He's really been working on them for the last week or so.

[Courtniko]

2 so far. The last few days have been rough on her, and she is sucking on her gums again and chewing on fingers a lot, so I am sure some more are about to pop through.
she will be 6 months old in 2 days.
this is one milestone I would have been very happy to have taken longer to start, man the bitting hurts and she thinks it is funny when I yelp in pain

Yep poor girl was legit in agony for 6 months straight as they all came in in that period of time.

That had to be painful

[gingy]

No teeth until 3?! Poor kid. Am I the only one that thinks it would be kinda funny to see a kid that big with no teeth? Did it effect her speech? I'm fascinated!

We have no teeth over here but all the signs. I'm hoping I'll see something soon just for some relief. I think I feel something in the back. That would be crazy to get a molar first, right?

[inaya]

None here. I had 4 teeth by 6 months but an easy time teething. LO is apparently taking longer, which I'm glad about, but I hope she takes after me with the easy part.

[cdseno]

Zero over here. J got his late which was fine with me. And not that it is related, but he has the most beautiful set of teeth I have ever seen on a child. I'm hoping Max gets the same good teeth genes from H.

I read that bottle-fed babies (whether BM or formula) tend to get teeth in earlier. Some speculate it's related to evolution. I haven't read this in any credible sources though so I would have to agree with minervamae that all kids are different.

My LO has two teeth. They are adorable!

[cdg91214]

Zero, but she's teething. Her brother already had two teeth by this age, but he took the bottle more than she does, so I'm not surprised.

[beachdreamer]

It's not all the way through yet but it's there so I said one. We've had drooling and chewing for a couple of months, but I still thought it would be a while. I was surprised today when DS shoved my thumb (his favorite teether) in his mouth and I felt something sharp! It wasn't there yesterday. Crazy -- but it helps explain how miserable he was over the weekend, especially Sunday.

[annapunkalunka]

We've got 4 with the 5th sooo close. It's funny. She got the front bottom 2, then the top 2 on either side of where her front teeth should be. She's got lil fangs.
