1st tooth!!

I was rubbing some orajel on LO's bottom gums tonight because she's been gnawing on her hand like crazy, drooling and fussy the last 2 days and I felt her first tooth coming in!  It's her bottom right and you can barely see it popping through the gum.  It's such a huge milestone but made me sad at the same time how fast she's growing up.  Just this week she started sitting up by herself too and rolling from back to front.  Seems like just yesterday I was bringing her home from the hospital!

Aww...It's crazy how fast it goes. It seems like they do it all so fast and at once!

lurking and feel free to ignore, but my experience is that orajel tears up the gums.  I used it even though DF told me that it makes hamburger meat out of your gums, because I used to use it when I was younger. It totally tore my gums up and made my mouth feel absolutely horrible! I was already feeling bad too.
