Only four teeth...

Ok, so some of you may remember that awhile back, I made a post titled "Four teeth?" In that post, I talked about how R seemed to be cutting four teeth simultaneously. [Edited to add: I also give an update on those teeth in this post. (And, if you've been paying especially close attention, you've noticed you can click on any of the labels at the bottom of a post and find all the other posts that share that label.)]

Fast forward almost 2 months, and only 2 of those four teeth have actually materialized. Nevertheless, my blog post title was apt, in that she now has a total of four teeth-- two on top and two on bottom.

Yesterday, a fifth tooth cut through, one of her eye teeth on bottom. And, I swear to all that is holy (I'm being so emphatic because I've been thinking this tooth was going to pop through for two solid months now!) that her top left central incisor is just about all the way through.

So, in a day or two, she may have six teeth. Seems like not very many given that she's 14.5 months old, but everything I've read suggests that babies get their teeth at different rates, so this is probably perfectly normal.
