It becomes a bit of a wrestling match to look at his gums. We're still working the gummy smile here at almost 6 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-baby-gums#post-568447 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 11:28:27 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 568447@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think it ever bothered either of us, and like the PPs said, I miss the gummy smiles. DD got her first tooth at 5 months and she had 13 at 1 year :-( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-baby-gums#post-568370 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 10:58:58 +0000 lovehoneybee 568370@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's never bothered either of us! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-baby-gums#post-568319 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 10:43:27 +0000 BelugaBean 568319@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love LO's gummy smile too and she has one tooth and it looks like she has another coming in which makes me sad as far as not seeing that anymore. And DH loves her gummy smile too, he just hates feeling her gums. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-baby-gums#post-568316 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 10:42:41 +0000 mediagirl 568316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love her gums and miss her gummy smile now that she has four teeth!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-baby-gums#post-568208 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 10:12:22 +0000 autumnlove 568208@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Baby gums don't bother me. I miss LO's gummy smiles! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-feel-about-baby-gums#post-568185 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 10:06:27 +0000 BelugaBean 568185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO's gums don't bother me at all. I've been feeling her new tooth as often as she'll let me since it popped through yesterday.</p> <p>DH, on the other hand, gets really weirded out when he touches LO's gums. It took forever to get him to feel the tooth and even then, I honestly think he just said he felt it so he wouldn't have to feel her gums anymore (I didn't force him, he said he wanted to feel the tooth).</p> <p>My MIL hates feeling baby gums too. I just don't know why they both get so freaked out by it. Do you get this way when you feel your LO's gums? Does your DH? </p>
