    When do the first molars appear?

    The molars are the chewing teeth and you can expect to see your child’s first molar on, or around, their first birthday. In fact, your child will be ‘teething’ right throughout the time between their first and second birthday, and the arrival of their molars may make them quite irritable and miserable at times.

    While they are getting molars there is very little you can do to ease your child’s discomfort. Molars are much bigger teeth than incisors and canines, so they can be quite painful as they cut through the gum. Your child may have a very red cheek and may also be very fretful, irritable and in need of constant nursing and attention.

    Rubbing the affected gum with your finger may provide some relief, as may a teething ring, which has a cool gel inside it. Other than that, you will just have to be patient and supportive while those molars are coming through.


    I thought it was later!

    My guys must be starting to get them too!! I could feel something on Ethan's gums last week but thought I was just crazy! They are trying to suck on everything...even the baby gates! I guess the cool metal feels good to them. Fun, fun! I can't wait until they get through because they've been little bears this week.
