I was told by the doctors that some babies don't start teething until 13 months sometimes!

Although the average time for first teeth to appear is around the 7 month mark this can be as early as 2 months and as late as 12 months. Find out whether either you or your husband was a late teether and that might be the answer to your riddle. At the moment though you do not have anything to worry about as it is still in the normal range. If there are no signs of teeth by his first birthday then have him checked out by a pediatric dentist but even then it is unlikely that there is anything wrong.

My daughter was born October 20. Her first tooth is just breaking the surface and the second appears to be close behind. My first daughter got her first tooth at around 7 months... Each in her/his own time!

My lo has been teething, but no teeth. I'm not worried, though - I don't mind her getting them late! My first tooth was at 13 or 14 months.

My baby will teeth, but nothing has come out yet. She'll go through bouts here and there, but no teeth yet.

My son was born 12th Oct and has been teething since he was 3 months old but he has only just in the last 2 days actually had 2 teeth break through. My nephew did not have any teeth until he was 14 months old (and then he got 4 in a week). I wouldn't worry teeth are not a sign of development so it doesn't matter when they come through - and babies can still eat food without teeth my LO does great on his solids he just bites stuff with his gums and chunks come off :-)

I know children who got their first teeth at 14 and 15 months old!!! My first got his first teeth at 3 1/2 months old, my 2nd got hers at 4 1/2 months old and my last bub has just got her first at 7 1/2 months old!! All of these children's teeth are pefectly fine, your son will get them when he is ready!! I wouldn't worry just yet!!

My daughter was born Oct.3rd and she just got her first tooth a week ago but I wouldn't worry if your son isn't teething yet. My son who is now 3 didn't get any teeth until 11 1/2 months old. The doctor said not to worry until after they turn one. All babies are different.

Jema is just now budding two teeth on the bottom but they are still deep in her gums, there is just the tip of the teeth showing.
