Don't worry it's normal! I assume it's the lowers, new tooth behind?
Yep lower ones in front
Just googling too seems quite normal but conflicting info saying the baby teeth should at least be wobbling
My dd1 had that and I remember panicking! Her baby teeth fell out within a month and the adult teeth moved into place. They still aren't perfect a year later but her teeth won't finish moving for a long time yet so giving them a chance to do their own correcting. So far she only has 3 adult teeth and is nearly 7.
I'd give the baby tooth a month or so to start wobbling (encourage her to wobble it herself, just make sure she's got the right tooth). If it doesn't budge, it might need to be extracted. Extraction of deciduous teeth is very quick and easy. :)
It happened to my DS. Took him to the dentist and the baby tooth was pulled. DD was not upset at all. Even having the anesthetic.
Thanks ladies.
Ill make dd1 try to wobble her tooth.
She is so cheeky. Said to me that she will stop brushing her teeth so that it will fall out.
Luckily i pulled the "the tooth fairy doesnt like yellow teeth" card on her.
Then she replies "ill just brush it after it falls out"

Hi,
I had a tooth not loose when the 2nd one came through. Sadly everyone including the dentist played the wait and see card and I ended up loosing both.
Wait and see...but not for too long!
My DD6 is the same, both her bottom teeth have come through behind her baby teeth which aren't wobbly one bit. I've been encouraging her to wobble them too. Good luck.
Regards,
Dianne
This happened with both dd1's top front teeth. The adult teeth were a good size before I got her in at the dentist.
They put some numbing cream on & encouraged her to pull them herself, but they were stubborn.
20 seconds & they had them out :)
