We have teeth - finally! Olivia is nine and a half months and the last of her friends to get teeth. I know some babies don't get teeth until later and I was in no rush for Olivia to get hers however if one more person expressed surprise that she didn't have any I'm not sure what I would have done. So Olivia decides to get her own back and her 2 bottom teeth have come through at the same time. At least I think she has whenever I try to look she either clamps her mouth shut or sticks her tongue out over her gums!
It wasn't without a struggle she seems to develop and cold and a cough when she is teething and sleep goes to pot, she was even crying in her sleep the other night (heart breaking). Hopefully this will improve again and I will get my smiling happy little girl back just in time for the school term to start again and me to go back to work.
On a positive she is also crawling (One of the things I wanted to achieve before the end of the summer holidays). She crawls with one knee on the floor and the other foot on the floor - apparently this is because she crawls from sitting position rather than from being on her belly! She doesn't move fast but she gets where she wants and when she gets an idea in her head there is no distracting her! Current favourites are Daddy's PS3 controllers and the laptop wire!
I'm hoping that we see no more teeth for a while now she has proved she can grow them lol!

They look so much more grown up the minute they get teeth, don't they? I remember feeling a bit sad when mine took that chomp out of babyhood.
ReplyDeleteI was so excited when mine got her first tooth - I never realised that the appearance of a tooth could be the cause of such super excitement!
