Re: OT:Gianna FINALLY cut a tooth!

[Guest guest]

Hey Kellie,

Thanks!!!

I too have heard that the older they are when they get they're first

tooth, the better they're teeth will be. My oldest got her first

tooth at 5 months and my boys got them at 8 months. My oldest ALWAYS

has cavities, my boys have never had one yet! So maybe it is true!

I also heard that the older they are when they get them, the older

they'll be when they lose they're baby teeth. Who knows.

WOW 3 months? That is early!! 8 months definitely is more normal than

3 months. Don't you just love ppl like that? LOL

Thanks again,
