My 8 month old is still waiting for his first teeth but I can feel the tops of them coming through the last 2 days so just wondering if anyone knows how long it might be until they come through? He’s getting very guerny

I dont think anyone could say how long. My lo was 8.5 months before his first teeth, then by 15 months he had 16!

I am in the same boat! I can see the top of the teeth breaking through, it’s been like this for about 5 days. I think they will be through and more visible in a few weeks. Is your little boy in pain?

He can be but actually ok today. It’s just a crying that’s not nice but I have been giving him calpol and that seems to help

Mine is just more clingy! I also gave calpol, but I’m not sure how many days I can give it him for so I stopped.

Not what you're looking for?
