No Teeth

Does anyone have any advice or ideas on how to break teeth through? My baby girl is 8 months old and still doesn’t have any teeth. She chews on things here and there and drools a lot but she hasn’t really shown any other signs or I don’t really know what to look for. I’m just worried because all the books I’ve read and apps I have say she should have one or two by now. Or am I just being paranoid?😅

Some babies make it to a year without teeth! Haha I think the books say that because on average babies have gotten teeth by 8 months. She’ll get them when her mouth is ready! My daughter is 10 months old and has 8 teeth but a friend of mine who’s baby is 8 months old only has one.

My son didn’t get his first tooth until 11 months. Some kids just take longer for them to come through.

It's totally fine for her not to have any teeth until she is 18 months. It's only an issue if she still has none by then because it could be a sign of other issues with her mouth. There's nothing to do to encourage them to come out, they come when they come, and every kid is different. The books and apps say 8 months because that's the average age.

My baby will be 8 months in a few days and I can finally see 2 teeth coming

10.5 months and we’ve only just started to have one cut. But, oh my lord teething is not for weak. My poor baby is suffering, also she hates Calpol 😩

My baby is 10 months, 11 next Sunday and she has none yet. But I can see the outline of them coming through so won’t be long. HV said she was a late bloomer so might get all of them at the same time 😱

Babies are so different, please don’t worry! My son’s swim class is him (8 months), a 10 month old and two 1 year olds. One 1 year old had no teeth and the other has 1 tooth that’s just come through. Meanwhile, the 10 month old has 4 teeth and my 8 month old is sporting 6 teeth 🤷🏼‍♀️

9 months old and no teeth 👋🏻

My niece didn’t get any teeth till she was 13 month old. My first born got 4 teeth at 5 months and my second is 9 months and has only just got 2 teeth through. I found using any numbing gels made it take longer

My daughter only cut her first tooth at 8.5 months. Now she's 9.5mo and has 2 in total x

My LO didn’t get her first tooth until 10 months. Had 2 teeth at 12 months, now at 18 months she has 12. They’ll come! Try not to worry xx

My LG is 13 months and still no teeth! X

My friends little one didn’t get any teeth for 13 months. Bubs the proceeded to cut 12 teeth in less than two months 😬

My lil girl is 9 months old and still no teeth . She is showing signs of teething and you can see the teeth sitting there but still haven’t popped up 🤷🏻‍♀️😂❤️

When I was a baby, I apparently didn't have any teeth until I was almost a year old, but then they all came through at the same time. My little one will 7 months next week and doesn't have any yet

My little boy didn’t get his first tooth untill he was 10 months. He’s now 17 months and still only has 7 x

My eldest daughter got her first tooth after she was 1 and my 11 month old still doesn’t have any. It’s totally normal. There’s nothing you need to do, they’ll come through when they’re ready.
