Dean's top right front tooth has been so close to popping through for the past month, but it has been a slow process! About two weeks ago a little corner of the tooth broke the skin; yesterday he was really rubbing his gums and gnawing on everything within reach like crazy. Today I finally saw the whole bottom of the tooth had broken through. I can't imagine what molars will be like!
He loves, loves, loves to eat the little teething tablets that instantly dissolve in his mouth. I don' t know if they help at all, but he sure loves them. I wish all kid medicine came in that form. He HATES! all liquid medicine. He closes his lips tightly and refuses to let the dropper in when he smells it. I can occasionally get him to take Tylenol (grape) but the Motrin (berry) is pure torture for him. Weird.
So at the beginning of his 8th month, he now has had 3 teeth to break through.

Way to go Dean! Ellee didn't get her first tooth until around 11 months and it didn't really poke all the way through for a while. She didn't get her first top tooth until 18 months.
RANAN SAME TOOTH IS TRYING TO COME THROUGH...THE CORNER CAME THROUGH LAST WEEK AFTER MUCH PAIN- THEN THE NEXT DAY DECIDED TO GO BACK INTO HIDING...JADA NEVER EVER HAD A ISSUE TEETHING-- RANAN HAS TWO AND ITS BEEN TORTURE!!
Wow Brooke. Did that make it hard for her to eat solids?
Cass, Dean's had the same thing where it would pop out and in. Long and drawn out I tell you. No fun for the little guy. I was trying to decide if it was more than just the one tooth and if the one next to it is trying to makes its way out as well.
Poor Dean. ..part of me wishes all the teeth would just come in at once, so it wasn't such a drawn out process! This is making me feel better though, because Beckett is almost 7 months and he still doesn't have any signs of any teeth. . .
