My 7 month finally got her first tooth yesterday. She was cranky for about 3 days prior, had two dirty diaers a day for those 3 days (she usually has one), and yesterday we saw her first tooth on the bottom middle. It was sticking out and very cute! I felt it, and saw all day today- but tonight it was gone? The gums seem swollen - could the tooth have gone back down? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

at my daughters 6 month appt, there was a tooth on the bottlem and the doc saw it and everything.
then a few weeks later it was gone.

she is now 11 months and the 2 bottom ones are just now starting to come in.

it sounds like the tooth breaking through and probly eating today irritated the gum a little and caused the gum to swell back up over the tooth it will probly go down over night and the tooth will be back in the morning.

My doctor told me it wasn't unusual for teeth to break the surface or just below and then go back down. My daughters canines did that...doctor jokingly said they came out and realized her top two weren't in yet and went back down.
