    Cross cutting?

    My DD was a late teether to start with. Bottom 2 came through in 2 days at 12 months, top 2 came through a month later both together.

    Now nothing further at 17 months but then tonight she bites my finger and I find a molar has come through! So she has the 4 front teeth plus a molar!

    Should I be worried? Would it be worth getting this checked out at the dentist or should I wait and see what happens?

    neither of my kids cut in the apparently correct order. Both late teethers, both got 20 teeth in under 6 weeks each.

    Charlotte was the same... late teether, all in the matter of a couple of months, mostly in pairs and never the order they are "supposed" to come in on.
    Marley is now just coming up to 7 months, and although had signs of teething for months, nothing at all yet! lol

    I've got a funny order teether too, he's only had 2 bottom teeth for months, and then a molar popped through, followed by a neighbour to the front bottom teeth, then a matching bottom molar. We have gaps all over the place, and at 17 months, only just half way there. I'm another who wouldn't worry too much - because you can't change it anyway, and orthodontics are years away yet
