Is anybody else having a heck of a time brushing their LO's teeth? Lyla fights and screams the whole time. Any suggestions for how to make this an easier nightly event?

We still have no teeth but anytime we try to clean her mouth she freaks out and bites down. So far we make a game out of it with singing and she does a bit better and I give her the back up mouth scrubber thing I have to play with while doing it and after are done she chews on that so I think that also helps in getting her mouth clean.

Holden doesn't scream but he doesnt like it. I have one of the rubber finger brushes so I just get in there as quick as I can a few times, rinse it and let him chew on it after that.

I've been using the rubber finger thing too and she bites me HARD!! I tried using a baby toothbrush, but that's worse.

Liam actually likes his toothbrush with toothpaste for babies
smiles and laughs while i do it
i try not to push it for too long, i'd have for him to start to fight me on it

I use the finger brush and Tommy is ok with it. He does get annoyed with it after a bit.

Nathan loves brushing his teeth. we use a baby toothbrush, I think he likes the bristles and the water. I usually give them a brush and then I let him "brush" his own teeth.

Ross isnt fond of it, but he doesnt scream, he would just prefer i keep out of his mouth. We bought him a baby/toddler toothbrush with baby tooth paste so its alright if he swallows some, I usually get a quick brush in and then let him play/chew/suck on his toothbrush for a bit

Omair only has his 2 bottom teeth, so I don't have a regular schedule about it. I suppose I should though. All I do right now is occasionally swipe the front and back of them with his burp cloth. I guess I should go buy something more specific, lol!
