How many do they get in total? Wyatt has 12 right now (4 top, 4 bottom, 2 top molars, 2 bottom molars). I'm thinking after his canines, he should be done until his 2-year molars? Or is there another set of molars?

*sniff* I just want teething to end...and she's nowhere near that many teeth.

uggh. Why aren't they born with all their teeth? Seems like it would be so much more evolutionarily reasonable.

Wow, 12! And they really get 20 teeth?! We have a loooong way to go then because we are not even at one whole tooth yet. BTW, how long does it usually take a tooth to come in all the way?

YES!!! Come on nature, are you listening?

Arie has a bunch of teeth now, 7 front teeth (there is one missing, not sure if it'll ever come in), 4 molars, and is working on cutting 2 canines. I would love it if she was done early with teething but I'm not counting on it.

Yes they do :/ Im not ready for the "loosing teeth" stage. Hopefully I have quite a few more years before Kaitlyn starts.

WOW 12 teeth... Caleb has 3 1/2 right now.

I heard that kids that get their teeth late lose them late. My BFF's son is 7 and just lost his second tooth. Oh, and the whole lose tooth thing grosses me out.

uggh. I'm far less worried about the losing teeth stage. Honestly, they adult teeth never seemed to hurt when they came in for me. I just wish there was a way to make the tooth fairy pay me for all the suffering that is now.

Maggie has 7 teeth and she started teething at 2 months. I think we should at least be half way there and we're not. Dang teeth. If they can't be born with teeth, why couldn't we have evolved into a species of herbivores? Evolution takes way too darn long.
