Anyone brushing teeth?

I just read that you should wipe your baby's gums with a soft cloth before s/he gets teeth and brush with a small amount of tooth paste once they get teeth.

My baby has 2 teeth, and I haven't brush them. Is anyone brushing teeth?

    Just plain water for now and a baby tooth brush usually once a day before bath, want him to get use to it early on so it's not a battle later on I hope ! They also have a tooth brush called baby's first toothbrush it's clear and silicone and has little bristles it's also a great teether they just chew on it and it brushes their teeth !

    We didn't start using toothpaste until age 2, but we've been brushing since her first teeth came in at 6mo.

    I brush his teeth with a baby toothbrush using water only once a day.
