Just when I stopped freaking out about the idea of having to chew Piper’s food for her for the rest of my life- a future of birthday pudding cups because she has no teeth and PROBABLY NEVER WILL- I’m going to be on Discovery Health because I have the first baby to never, ever grow teeth… yes, that was me freaking out. I have stopped that, promise. I love her gummy smile!
Just when I started thinking that it was GOOD that she has no teeth- because I will never, ever get to see her with no teeth ever again- this is the ONLY time Piper will have that gorgeous, gummy smile that just gets me deep down inside… anyway… I was coming to relish not having a little chomper in our midst.
Until this morning. I was grabbing a toy for her and she grabbed my hand and put a (clean) finger in her mouth. She bit down, as per usual. Unlike all other times, something sharp poked my finger. Heart racing, I dug my finger back into her mouth. What is this?? A sharp-ass tip of a tooth, not even able to be seen with the human eye- was there, hurting me.
My baby has a tooth coming in!
Now I’m sad. Haha. After all the feeling of the gums for months, searching for that nub of tooth, to find nothing… my baby is growing teeth!!
She’s TOO YOUNG FOR THIS!!
Yes, I am a freak.
