Almost exactly 5 years after the first one sprouted. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lost-tooth#post-2601055 Tue, 09 Aug 2016 10:10:32 +0000 Mamaof2 2601055@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaG: DS has lost 8 teeth and some I didn't even know were loose - others took FOREVER!!!!(months) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lost-tooth#post-2601008 Tue, 09 Aug 2016 09:01:52 +0000 RLCeigh 2601008@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MAMAG: his first one was wiggly for a few days and we thought we had time, he was eating a snack watching a show while I was making dinner and he brought me a tooth. I was shocked he had it! The second one was even quicker-- it got wiggly, bad mom I am sent apple slices to school as a snack and it came out that day in school. The nurse packed it in a cute little treasure box. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lost-tooth#post-2600991 Tue, 09 Aug 2016 08:29:29 +0000 MamaG 2600991@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: @chopsuey: @RLCeigh: How long from wiggly to falling out? I'm sure it's not a science but I just am uncertain of how quickly to see this tooth gone. I know it's a process but I don't really look forward to the coming years of awkward smiles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lost-tooth#post-2600989 Tue, 09 Aug 2016 08:20:34 +0000 RLCeigh 2600989@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son just turned 5 yesterday and he has lost his 2 bottom teeth already! We were caught offguard when it happened so early (I think he was 4.5). The good thing is that he was thrilled with the tooth fairy's $1 and it was super easy to slip under his pillow. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lost-tooth#post-2600984 Tue, 09 Aug 2016 08:17:00 +0000 Mamaof2 2600984@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS was a week or so shy of 6</p> <p>DD is 5yrs and 5 months and has 2 wigglers on the bottom! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lost-tooth#post-2600982 Tue, 09 Aug 2016 08:13:54 +0000 catlady 2600982@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My dad's a dentist. He was telling me recently that girls often lose their first teeth earlier, and as early as 4 is normal. Average age is between 5 and 6. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lost-tooth#post-2600959 Tue, 09 Aug 2016 07:20:08 +0000 irene 2600959@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wait, they lose their teeth this quickly? I thought it was not until 6?? DS is 4.5 and I am not ready for it.....! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lost-tooth#post-2600913 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 23:13:35 +0000 MamaG 2600913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sandy: the dentist said 5-6 is fairly normal. The X-rays were so neat to see how they are pushing the baby teeth out and how the roots are disappearing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lost-tooth#post-2600898 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 22:21:49 +0000 sandy 2600898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaG: @chopsuey: oh my word!!! I am NOT ready for them to start losing their baby teeth!!! </p> <p>I heard that if your kid got their teeth early they tend to lose their teeth early too. My LO had nearly all her teeth by 12 months so I think she may lose her teeth early. She'll be 5 in November. I am so not ready for this milestone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lost-tooth#post-2600888 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 22:06:24 +0000 chopsuey 2600888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD lost her first recently at 5yr4months old. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lost-tooth#post-2600865 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 21:15:04 +0000 MamaG 2600865@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When did your kiddo lose their first tooth?</p> <p>Our dentist said LO would lose her bottom two by Thanksgiving and the top two within 6 months after the bottoms. The bottom teeth are shifting and now all crooked. And tonight we confirmed that she has a wiggler. She's 10 days short of turning 5. I'm not sure it will hang on to see her 5th birthday. </p>
