TEETH!

I stole this from www.babyblogaddict.com, and thought it was good to see. I knew baby teeth came in pairs and they had an order but I can't say I knew the specific order.

Here is what I just learned below:

First of all the teeth appear in pairs. Pair numbered 1-1 comes first, then the pair numbered 2-2 and so on. There is also a time frame for teeth: the first four pairs erupt in the first year, pairs 5 and 6 from 12 to 18 months, pairs 7 and 8 from 18 to 24 months, and pairs 9 and 10 after the baby is two-years-old.




Zach has big beautiful teeth. Yet as we progress with new pairs the teething process seems to get worse and worse. Zach suffers from a low grade fever (99-101), finicky meal times, fussyness and overall uneasienes. At least now I know what teeth to expect next.
