The order of which babies teeth come through?

[Stevie]

I was wondering if this was normal..
I know that its usually the bottom front 2 first, then the top front 2 .. then i have no idea where from there..

But my question is.. Is it normal for the tooth NEXT to the top front ones to come through before the front 2? im pretty sure this is whats happening with DD.
It hasnt come through yet, but i can see it just under the skin and the front 2 look normal (and liek nothing is coming through) the one that looks like its comign through looks like it did when the bottom ones come through (thats why i think i know iykwim lol)

Thanks for your help ladies

had a LOL at how many times i typed the word "through" hehe

I don't think that there is a 'specific' order for them to come through. More a general pattern IYKWIM?

FWIW I wouldn't have a clue after the first 3 teeth for each of my kids cos the rest came through so quick I didn't have time to notice which came first. DD went from 2 to 15 teeth in a month and DS already has all his teeth plus 2yo molars....all kids are different though in everything, so why not teeth?

I read it's meant to be the bottom two teeth - but DS' first tooth was his back molar

Sounds perfectly normal
I had 2 vampire babies Bottom 2 teeth, then top teeth beside the middle ones, then the next bottom 2, then, finally the middle top teeth!

Okay I just looked in my book & Clover is absolutely right. It's not unusual for teeth to come out of sequence & babies often get their top side teeth before the central ones.
