One time won't hurt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-put-your-baby-down-wo-wiping-or-brushing-their-teeth#post-445633 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 19:12:06 +0000 enjollah 445633@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: hahah gotcha.

My mom would kill me if she found out because she's a dental hygienist! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-put-your-baby-down-wo-wiping-or-brushing-their-teeth#post-445532 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 18:53:37 +0000 autumnlove 445532@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@enjollah: Yes, I use small cloth washcloths and wet them with warm water and wipe her gums and teeth. She doesn't fight it when she is tired but I will start brushing because she has 8 teeth and 2 coming in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-put-your-baby-down-wo-wiping-or-brushing-their-teeth#post-445522 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 18:51:17 +0000 enjollah 445522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: do you just use a warm wash cloth and wipe teeth only? I should probably be doing this with my LO... He has 4 so far... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-put-your-baby-down-wo-wiping-or-brushing-their-teeth#post-445166 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 18:45:00 +0000 autumnlove 445166@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Will you just skip it or do it when you remember?</p> <p>I picked up LO twenty minutes after she was down for the night and wiped her teeth. She cried but went back to sleep right away! DH thought I was nuts to wake her up...dental hygiene is important to me! :-) </p>
