We have a tooth!

After hearing A LOT of horror stories with teething I was seriously dreading when poor Ava was going to start cutting teeth! I had no idea what to expect  - but now I do!  After a day of Ava being happy (although extra dribbly) we had a meltdown! Unfortunately it was while I was driving home and at the time I had no idea what was wrong with her - she wasn't due a feed for another hour or so and had just woken from her nap.  When we got home the crying stopped and Ava happily played with some of her favourite toys.  At 5:30 we ran her bath and as I was telling Damo about her cry in the car I felt her gums and felt a sharp edge through her gum! I couldn't believe my poor little girl cut her first tooth while I was driving and couldn't stop and give her big cuddles.  But it has just reinforced how much of a beautiful, brave, easy going girl we have.  We are so lucky to that she is an easy baby and are definitely grateful and I don't take it for granted at all!  Next time Ava starts crying for no reason I'll be checking her teeth and give her big cuddles regardless just incase.
