Finally something has emerged....

Emilia and her second tooth! First I could see a raised bump and a darker line on her lower gum and today when I rub my finger pad on it, I can feel something sharp. But it is too small to be seen with eyes, I think. So far this is the only one that is emerging. I guess the upper ones will be cutting at a later stage. By the way, she's already lost her first tooth (lower incisor) so until she gets permanent teeth, she will be missing a tooth in that spot. :-(

  1. How did she lose her first tooth?

    1. She had a milk tooth after she was born but before she reached term. The natal tooth does not have a proper root and it kind of falls off on its own, though in our case, NICU called in a dentist to take it out.
