My baby is 9 months old and she has been pre-teething for months. Her first tooth just broke through the gum a couple weeks ago(bottom), but it is crooked. The one next to it is also coming in crooked?? Is this normal?

They're just baby teeth, and they might straighten out a little when the other teeth start to grow in around it. And just because they have crooked baby teeth doesn't mean the adult teeth will be as well. My son has a "special tooth" which is two teeth fused together to make one big tooth with a light line down the middle. The dentist said that he mostly likely won't have the same thing with his adult teeth.

Yes it can happen, at this time there is no need to be so worried since they are baby teeth.
The time to start worrying is when permanent teeth start coming in. So in the mean time enjoy your baby and stop worrying about the baby teeth.
When your child grows and develops her permanent teeth if they are crooked then you can worry about it. But that is quite a ways off from now. If her teeth are crooked then when she is old enough think about having braces placed on her teeth.
Nothing you can do now except relax and enjoy your baby.

Yes, it is. Don't worry about it. They are just baby teeth. The baby teeth aren't as close together as grownup teeth so there is more room for them to be crooked.

I'm afraid you're going to have an ugly child. If it's still under warranty, you might want to exchange it. Otherwise, wait until the adult teeth come in and make it get braces.
