I'm curious.. What order did your child's teeth come through in, & when?

Jenny got 2 top molars last week without me even noticing.. & yet she still only has 2 top front ones. I thought the ones either side of the front ones were going to come through first. She has 4 bottom teeth, just.. one's still only poking through a little bit.

I know all babies are different, I've just always been a bit concerned that she should have more teeth than this at her age.

i don't think it matters what order they come in. William got two bottom, then two top. then another two bottom and another two top. he then got his molars. hes getting the rest of his teeth through now, so my poor lil man is suffering
have you got a health book from the health visitor? i think it should mention it in there. im not entirely sure

yay jenny! i'm glad she got her molars with no pain! finn didn't seem bothered either, one day he was upside down and laughing and i saw he had his 2 top molars. i didn't even know they were coming in!

i don't think it matters what order teeth come in or how many they have. finn got his bottom 2 middle, then his top 2 middle, then the top 2 canines, then 1 more on bottom and the other is going to poke through any day, and now he has his top 2 molars and 1 on the bottom. his first 6 came in gradually, the rest have all been popping through at once it seems.
