It?s pretty cute when your baby?s pearly whites start to poke through her gums. But teething can also cause crankiness, which is decidedly less adorable when you remember 20 primary teeth in total eventually emerge. Yikes.
Shawna Batten, a mom of two in Wainwright, Alta., noticed her son Rylan?s first tooth when he was four months old. He had all the classic symptoms: irritability, drooling, chewing on everything and waking multiple times per night. ?He was always working on two teeth or more,? Batten recalls. ?He never got a break.? By age one, Rylan had 16 teeth and two tired parents.
Because everyone has an opinion, we asked the teething experts to separate fact from fiction.
