You might notice this when you introduce solid foods, even if the majority of your child’s “chewing” is done with her back gums. These little teeth create a charming baby smile, and, if your finger has been in the wrong place at the wrong time, a very sharp one as well! That is because these tiny incisors are made to bite into foods. And even though there are no firm and fast dates for each of these primary teeth to erupt, it’s helpful to have a general overview of typical teething patterns so you know what to look forward to. Is this normal? Probably! While baby teeth do typically erupt (come in) in the same order for all babies, and around the same time, there is still a lot of flexibility in the time it takes for a full, healthy smile to develop.īaby teeth actually form before your baby is born, and those 20 teeth are there under the gums waiting to come out and shine. Your darling three-month old is crying and fussy-can she be teething already? Or, your happy baby boy has just celebrated his first birthday-with only one tooth in that beautiful, gummy smile.
