Keira's top two teeth broke through a few days ago and she has been grinding them with her bottom teeth. This can't be good. I stick my finger in her mouth to get her to stop but she does this ALL the time. Is this normal? Anything else I can do to get her to stop?
Re: Grinding Teeth
It's normal. You can offer her things to chew on instead, but she'll probably keep doing it some. I think for most babies it's a phase that will pass.
Nate did it too and it made my stomach turn. Ugh, I hated the way it sounded!!
I think they just like to test out the new teeth... I'm sure they must feel pretty weird! But once they get used to it, they stop grinding them.

Ben has taken up this habit again recently. It sounds like they're chewing rocks! It's awful.
Like ECU said, it'll pass.
