New mom question about teeth & teething?

I heard usually it's bottom teeth that come in first.....is this true?


But what's weird is that DS gums feel different.....the bottom is smoother, the top gums are ridged & feel sort of sharp around the front. Is that normal?


He has been a running like a faucet in the drool department lately & waking frequently ay night crying.

The bottom middle teeth came first for both of my daughters. If you feel something hard and sharp on top, sounds like those may be coming first!

Kaydyn just got 3 teeth last week and she is almost 10 months. Her top gum had a ridge in the middle and felt harder then her bottom all along. But you could def tell when her teeth came through....it was hard (the tooth). Most times the bottom come in first, but I do know a friend whose daughter got her top teeth first.

I don't know whats normal, but I just felt my 11 month olds top gums, and they feel hard but smooth.

Thanks girls!!

Well he definatelt has some sharp ridges, so maybe he IS gettign teeth. He has been pretty cranky, chewing on his hands, runny nose.....all the teething signs.

We shall see!
