The Continuing Adventures of Super-Preemie

Shoshanna is a former micro-preemie (born 3 1/2 months early) who's now thriving! If you'd like to support research into the causes & prevention of premature birth, you can donate to WalkAmerica.

Holy Molars, Batman!

We knew Shoshanna was teething. You can just feel the corner of her 4th bottom tooth cutting through. She's been a little cranky, but nothing extraordinary.

This evening, as she and Matthew were having a tickle-fight (he was winning), a discovery was made:
Shoshanna is currently cutting not 1, not 2, not 3, but FOUR teeth. The last incisor (bottom right) and THREE molars.
Yeah, no wonder she's been a little cranky (I actually suspected that she was working on the molars because she's been rubbing her jaw occasionally). The top two molars have their corners through and the one bottom one is just starting to come through. And then the last lower incisor, which is slowly making its way into the world.
