How long until the tooth comes in, once you can see it?

Question

I have been feeling the bump for a couple days, and now you can see the white of it, kind of like a dot..but you can definitely feel it! He already hurt me LOL, Im sure he'll be hurting himself soon too. But how long until it comes all the way out?

Answer 1

its all different, my daughters 1st tooth took about a week, her second tooth, we literally watched it come in within one day, it was pretty cool!

Answer 2

Sometimes teeth can pop up and then go back down again a few times before they actually come right through.  My son didn't get his teeth until 13 months I felt the bump at 11 months but, once I could see the white and a little slit of tooth it took a matter of a couple days to be totally sticking out.  But, at 15 months they are still not all the way up (about half way now)

As for help with the teething.  I used teething tablets from the local health food store.  They worked great and I didn't worry about always using tylenol etc to relieve his pain.

Answer 3

Differs from baby to baby. It took a month for my daughters to fully come through.

Her first 3 came in at the same time.. a few days after her first birthday and her 4th came in about 2 weeks later and all 4 of them were completely through by the time she was 13 months.

Answer 4

My son's first two teeth came in when he was about eight months and we didn't even notice a knot or anything until the tip of it broke though. Than it took about week and a half, to two weeks for them to come through. I still don't think that they are completely through and he is 10 1/2 months old. His top teeth look like they could come through any day now. They are all puffy and white, they've been this way for about three weeks now. I know you have heard this before, but every baby is different. So really there is no way of knowing how long, or how early something will happen.  

Answer 5

Answer 6
