i see the lines cutting through the gums and it looks as tho her 2 outter teeth are growing 1st instead of the 2 front teeth. Does that happen? i cant feel the teeth yet but i can see the whites of it. Theres a huge gap between the u[coming new teeth. So does it mean her outter teeth is growing in 1st or that shes gonna have a gap?

Could this have been caused by a pacifier?!?

My daughter had her 2 eye teeth come in first then the 2 bottom eye teeth. She got her 2 front teeth and 2 bottom teeth a month later and right now they actually look pretty even.

Baby teeth are often quite gappy. This is so that a lot of gunk can't get in between them and cause problems. Just wait and see how they grow in. There isn't much you can do about it either way. When they do come in you chould make an appointment with a dentist. It is never too early for their first visit. They will be able to tell you if everything is normal as well.

My daughters teeth grew i in text book fashion. My son is a different story. Got the bottom ones okay and then the side on, next to the two front). That one top one came in and then next to that, then the next from on and then today that other side one came in. She will have a gap for a while. If it seems major it maybe be the outers comming first. Hope this helps.

My sons teeth didn't growing in perfectly either, but over time they came together properly. But worst case is that your child may need braces. But I wouldn't worry to much.
My son never took a pacifier, but I guess it could have something to do with it. But then again it may not.

i would not worry until they are all in and then see what they look like. also my ped dr has told us when the kids turned 1 to take them to a denist for a first dental checkup. this may help you when she turns 1. in the mean time i think its ok and normal.
