My babe has 3 on the top and 2 on the bottom. I think she just likes the noise. Like Boogs, I do it in my sleep so maybe it is genetic. </p> <p>The other week while BFing I told her, "No biting!" and she smirked at me and grinded her teeth. RRRRRRR. Little sassafrass! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teeth-grinding#post-47788 Thu, 05 Jan 2012 22:26:29 +0000 Boogs 47788@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!! Ugh!! It totally makes my skin crawl. He's had 4 teeth on top and 4 on the bottom for a bit now but the grinding just started in the last month. </p> <p>I also unknowingly do it in my sleep occasionally so maybe it's hereditary? </p> <p>Anyone have any tricks to make them stop? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teeth-grinding#post-47682 Thu, 05 Jan 2012 20:24:00 +0000 mrs. wagon 47682@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yup, RJ did this a lot when his teeth were coming in. Doc says that (and sticking the tongue out, and a few other weird things) were probably just him experimenting with the new things in his mouth and he'd grow out of it... he did :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teeth-grinding#post-47677 Thu, 05 Jan 2012 20:15:11 +0000 chopsuey 47677@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@banana: @Sha: wonderful! :) thanks ladies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teeth-grinding#post-47670 Thu, 05 Jan 2012 20:10:01 +0000 Sha 47670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>mine did this around the same age, when he was getting his first teeth in. it was a pretty short phase and passed after a couple of weeks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teeth-grinding#post-47669 Thu, 05 Jan 2012 20:09:33 +0000 banana 47669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! My LO used to grind his teeth when he was around 7 or 8 months old. He did it for about a month or two and then just stopped. I asked his pediatrician about it and she said a lot of babies do it when they first get their teeth because it's an interesting sensation for them. But most outgrow it by a year, like my LO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teeth-grinding#post-47665 Thu, 05 Jan 2012 20:07:36 +0000 chopsuey 47665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: nope! no teeth grinders here. she does it when she's awake though. so maybe she's getting used to having hard white things in her mouth? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teeth-grinding#post-47657 Thu, 05 Jan 2012 20:01:17 +0000 mrbee 47657@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, but I do this when I am stressed!</p> <p>Does it run in your familia? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teeth-grinding#post-47640 Thu, 05 Jan 2012 19:43:23 +0000 chopsuey 47640@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 9 month old has recently started grinding her teeth. She does it maybe once or twice a day (just 1-2 "grinds"). </p> <p>Did your LO ever grind his/her teeth?</p> <p>She has 4 teeth on top and 2 on bottom. </p>
