My baby is 8 months old today and has no teeth.. is that normal?

Dilcia - posted on 04/28/2010

Yea It's normal. You know my mom says the longer they take to come out the healthier the teeth will be! So that's a good thing....my baby is 8 months and has 7 teeth so I'm praying for the best!

Hi, My daughter is 9 months and doesnt have any teeth yet either! My first child didnt have any till she was 1 and Dr says its actually better for babies to get there teeth when closer to 1 year old!

Sarah - posted on 04/25/2010

I assume its fine, all kids are different. My first daughter got her first tooth at 6 months. Now I have daughter #2 and shes almost 9 months and has no signs of a tooth. I would'nt worry.

nope no teeth yet, but she thinks she has some :) if she could she'd eat steak...yummmm!!

My daughter did not get any until 11mths and my Son has 2 at 8mths, just depends on the baby, i have been told that the longer it takes for them to come through the stronger they are, dont know if there are any facts behind this but it might make you feel a little better!

Thanx guys My son has been teething from 3months and nothing has come out, im relieved I thought there was something wrong, after reading all your post I can see there's nothing wrong with him.They'll come at their own time.

Hi, my daughter is 8 months old and also no teeth, I'm not worried as mine only came through at 11 months, makes breastfeeding a lot easier as well!

Brandi - posted on 04/18/2010

my son is 8 months old and he still doesnt have teeth!! They say that between the 6 to 12 months kids should have 4 top front teeth and 4 bottem front teeth but teeth come when they are ready to come

my daughter olso no teeth yet .....

Rosanna - posted on 04/18/2010

Hi Rosalina,

My son hasn't cut his first tooth yet either. It is definitely normal, my daughter didn't cut her first tooth until about 9 months.

Kamendra - posted on 04/18/2010

My son Nicholas will be 8 months on 4/28 and he still has no teeth either so dont feel bad

Candi - posted on 04/18/2010

My 8 month old doesn't have teeth, nor any signs of them coming any time soon. I figure it's just fine because my mom says mine didn't come in for a year. No worries.

Angela - posted on 04/18/2010

My daughter will be 8 months in 10 days and she just got her 1st tooth starting to poke out....I can feel it but not alot!

Lorrie - posted on 04/17/2010

My baby doesn't have any either. Her sister that's 18 months older didn't get teeth until she was almost a year old. Her's came in perfectly fine and we haven't had any problems (yet). The only thing I heard was that "the older they are before teeth come in, the better their teeth are going to be." I don't know if this is true or not but it would make sense because they are less in contact with bottles/formula. Don't worry...they'll come eventually.

My daughter doesn't have any teeth yet either. My 1st got his at 11 1/2 months, my 2nd and 3rd got theirs at 6 months. It's all normal. The later they get their teeth, the stronger their teeth are, so don't worry.

Alicia - posted on 04/17/2010

My son does not have any teeth yet, although it feels like he has one popping up on the left side. Some babies don't get their first tooth until after their first birthday. My sons pediatrician says it is perfectly normal.

Andrea - posted on 04/17/2010

O has been teething for over a week. It's coming soon, but no sign of it yet aside from the bump and drool.

Andrea - posted on 04/17/2010

My daughter is 8 months and has no teeth yet. Our Plunket nurse isn't worried at all.

Vernette - posted on 04/17/2010

no my daughter doesn't have any teeth yet either. it is fine. there's nothing to be alarmed about. they will eventually grow in. don't try to rush them because as soon as they come in they will start biting the mess out of you. so heal yourself now because you will get bit later.

Hi I went to Crystals check up 2 weeks ago and the health visitor said the longer they take to come through the longer they keep their first teeth and no Crystal still hasn't got any yet

Leila - posted on 04/17/2010

glad u posted this a few weeks ago I was wondering the same thing I saw a friend of mine 7 month old little girl with two teeth at the bottom and I wondered if Ian was behind but his doctor said it was normal babies develop at different rates and he even told Ian to "tell" me to stop comparing him to other babies he will do what he needs to do in his own time. Lol

My daughter doesn't have teeth yet either!!

Rebecca - posted on 04/16/2010

They say it's better for them to get later in their life. My son has his first tooth just pop though a week ago. His 7 and a half mths

Rebecca - posted on 04/16/2010

hey I didnt get my first tooth till 9months! my son is 8months and 1week and he has not got any yet, the health nurse said its ok and so did our dentist! i lost my first tooth when i was 10 the dentist said it was probably better on my teeth anyway so i hope that helps i guess all babys are just different and thats why they say there is no textbook, so dont stress im sure theyl come through soon enough :)

Kathy - posted on 04/16/2010

My son is 8 months and doesn't have any yet. My first one was 9 months before he cut his first tooth.

Kelly - posted on 04/16/2010

My bubs is his age and only just got her first tooth. I've heard of some babies being over one and still not having their first tooth yet. Think there's nothing to worry about, and they're all individual. Some babies in my Mums' grp have several (and they're younger than my daughter) ;)

Debi - posted on 04/16/2010

It's totally normal, and as others are noting, follows hereditary patterns. Our 8-month-old doesn't have any teeth yet, either, but then neither did I till I was 13 months old (much to the distress of my dental-hygienist mother), and then they came in four at a time. My fraternal twin sister was right on schedule. If you know when your own teeth came in -- and when your son's father's did, too -- that will give you some idea of when you can expect your son's teeth to arrive. Hope that helps!

Samantha - posted on 04/16/2010

My son is 8 mos and just got his first. I have also heard that the longer it takes the teeth to come in the healthier they will be

Alicia - posted on 04/16/2010

my 8 month old just got his first tooth. our doctor said it can take until 14 months for some babies! i wouldn't worry, enjoy the sleep while you can

My son will be 8 months on April 27th and his first tooth just poked through yesterday.

Michele - posted on 04/16/2010

Yes, my son is 8 months old and no teeth yet. My mom tells me I didn't get any teeth till I was 13 months. No worries :)

Carley - posted on 04/16/2010

Phew! It was so good to read everyone's post... I was feeling the same way about my 8 month old daugher. She acts like she's teething, but I don't feel anything coming through. My (almost) 2 yr old son got his 1st tooth right at 6 months. And they say girls develop faster than boys... riiiight! She did everything else faster than him, EXCEPT cutting teeth lol.

Melaina - posted on 04/16/2010

My daughter is 7 months and has no teeth. She has been chewing on things and drooling almost since day one and I was convinced that she was teething! LOL! But nothing has broken through yet. It is perfectly fine!!!! My nephew was over a year before he got his first tooth! Then all of them came in within a mater of days!!!! Every child is different!

Donna - posted on 04/16/2010

Hi Rosalina! I have 5 children - my six year old didn't have any teeth until he was 1 then he got a whole mouth full within a couple of weeks. Andrew my 8 month old is also gummy chops - nothing to worry about - your little one will get them for sure - never seen a child go to pre-school without any yet! :) :)
