Getting first year molars already

    Caleb is almost 14 months old. He's been stuck at four teeth for a bit. He just started getting his upper incisors (the teeth next to the front two). Now he's also getting his upper first year molars! I'm just surprised that he is getting them already, and not the canines.

    Wow! I hope he does better with his FY molars then my DS did, those were tough ones!

    Karina is just getting her canines and she's had her first year molars for a long time. Annelise has her first year molars, but does not have canines yet. I think it is common to get the front eight (counting top and bottom) and then first year molars. Canines have been far worse for us than the first year molars were.

    Yeah, I think Beth is right. I know both mine got first year molars around 12-13 months old, and Mark has all his teeth, except second year molars. Eli has everything but canines.

    The canines seem to be the last on both my boys.

    On another note, I'm pretty sure that's early to get his teeth. Reminds me of my boys; they have more teeth than any other kids their age--got their first ones at 3 months old.

    Thanks, I can't remember for the life of me when the girls got their molars and what order the teeth came in.

    Yes, pretty sure the typical progression is molars before canines. I know we had first molars in at 14 months and then the canines were more like 16-17 months. Oh, and those canines were miserable for us but the molars weren't bad at all. Go figure.
