First tooth

norsegirlG's first tooth poked out overnight. I can see a little hole and a tiny bit of tooth inside it. Front bottom left tooth was the first to show. I can feel the right one but it's still under the gum at this point, only a matter of days I figure.
So far she's nibbled a nipple just once. I'm hoping that we can keep breast feeding because I don't want to get into the puree thing but she's not ready to eat real food completely yet. She plays with it and manages to consume a little, but not enough to sustain her.
My sister informs me that we have to go shopping for a toothbrush and special toothpaste for her today. I don't imagine brushing a baby's tooth will be either fun or easy but maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised.
Goodbye to the little toothless smile, welcome to the next step.

I think you can just wipe the tooth with a wet washcloth to clean it. Right now mine loves munching on my fingers so I hope I still have access when the tooth (or teeth, both bottom ones are pretty close to the gum line) is out!
