Teeth Sequence

[flower]

According to the back of the rusk packet: Teeth come number one, 2down the bottom. Then the second lot are directly above. Number three is either side of 2.....
SO....has anybody had their baby teethe out of sequence??
My O has number ones, then one 3.....(no 2's)..so he looks like Count Dracula with a little canine hanging out from the top and then his two bottom teeth...
Anyone else?
Can they do that??

My DS got 2 on the bottom, then 2 up top, then 1 more down bottom, then 2 more up top, then a molar on one side, then one directly above...oh and now his fourth bottom tooth that we due about 5 months ago. I had almost given up on him getting that one.

I guess the babies aren't reading the same books as us ! :D

DS got a top front and a top side on the same day, i think there was a space of 2 teeth between them. A couple of weeks later he got the same 2 on the other side of his mouth. Next was the front bottom 2, then the side ones, so the bottom matched the top... after that the others started filling in the gaps. He is now 2.5yrs and still doesn't have his 2yr old molars, and is still missing the ones beside the middles ones on the bottom. Oh, and he was 17mths old before he got his first teeth.

My DD was 15 months before she got her first tooth, and then they came in completely different from how they are 'supposed' to (don't ask me what order they did come in - my brain is on maternity leave). She is now 2 1/2 and we are just waiting for the very last ones at the back. :)

Yeah ds' were a bit out but his all came earlier than "supposed to". He's 18 mths & working on his 2 yr old molars!!

Ds's were right at the start but after the first few then they were coming all over the place !!

My girlfriends DD got her molars first before any others !!

My little boy's getting more teeth!!!!
I'm fascinated! :p

I have a friend whose children have all strted with thier top canines before they got anything else! They all looked like little vampires and she was really worried with her first, but relaxed with her others.

They got all of the other teeth not long after and all have beautiful smiles, lovely straight teeth and no problems.

Both of my kids got them in a textbook fashion as far as order went, just always 4 at a time! They both had thier full set of teeth by the time they were 18months old.
