    Just curious, when did they get their first tooth and how long do you think they were teething before it came in?

    Thanks,
    Shoshana

    My girls started being drool machines around 3.5 months. One of my girls got two teeth at 5.5 months. She had a few days that she was unusually cranky and then the tooth popped.

    They will be six months tomorrow and no sign of teeth for the other one yet.

    Norah started teething at 2 mos. She has two teeth at 4.5 mos and Nevan has 1.5 teeth at 4.5 mos. Nevan didn't really teethe so it was a surprise when he got his teeth.

    Mine were teething at 6 months, and what was so confusing was that they didn't get a tooth until after a year of age!

    Both of my girls cut their first four teeth all at once. They started drooling around 5 months and by 6 months they had cut all four. It was a rough, rough month.

    Both waited until 10 months to get teeth...but on and off 'symptoms' for quite awhile. It is our go-to bad sleeping excuse "oh, they must be teething".

    It seemed like they started teething around 3-4 months, but around 6 months they stepped up the intensity quite a bit. They both got their first tooth at 7 months -- Sarah one day, Amy the next. A week later they got their second tooth -- same order.

    Since then, Sarah has completely pulled ahead -- she now has 12 while Amy has 7.

    Gage got his first tooth on Valentine's day at 4.5mos & it was a total shock because aside from chewing & drooling, he showed no symptoms whatsoever! His second came in 6 days later. He's now working on the third (bottom left next to the first two- weird, i know!) & is actually being a bit cranky over this one. Keira has yet to get one, but has been drooling, chewing & fussy as all get out for the past week or so.

    Mine started "teething" at like 3 months. But we didn't actually "see" one until they were 8 1/2 months old! Sometimes it takes awhile! [​IMG]

    DD has nothing but chews on everything and has since 5 months. DS just got his first tooth this week and the second one is about 1 week away. He had the bumps for almost 2 months before the teeth popped through.

    My girls started teething around 3 months, they didn't cut any teeth until about 6 months (I think, I didn't check in the baby books).

    Mine are 7.5 months and no teeth yet. People have been telling me they're teething since they were 4 months because of the drooling, knawing, and putting everything in their mouths. No sign of teeth yet!

    Mine all started showing what I thought were teething signs at 4-5 months. However, they didn't cut their first tooth until 10, 11 & 12 months.
