Guest guest Posted June 26, 2001 Report Share Posted June 26, 2001 I found the late teeth comment interesting as well. I've never heard anyone mention this side affect fo CF before. Emma is going to be a year old in a week and a half and she only has three teeth so far. Her cousin who will turn a year old tomorrow and doesn't have CF, already has 8 teeth and has had them for a few months already. I am not one of those mothers who thought about actually writing these things down for my older daughter but I do recall hers came in late but I don't think it was only three at a year old. Talk to you later, Law - mother of Emma 11 1/2 months w/CF and Isabelle 2 1/2 years wo/cf On Tue, 26 Jun 2001 10:53:50 -0500 " johndawn " writes: > I found the thing about late teeth interesting.

Guest guest Posted June 26, 2001 Report Share Posted June 26, 2001 I find this interesting as well! Agustin turned one year old on June 14th and he's only getting his 5th tooth now -- and he's suffering a lot! ... Neither his Ped nor his CF Doc said anything about late teething related to CF ... I'm getting a little concerned about this. I'd like to read other experiences about this issue! Thanks in advance, Mom of Agustin, 1 yo wcf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 26, 2001 Report Share Posted June 26, 2001 , Just thought I would say that our daughter with CF did not have any problems with her teeth coming in and has been losing baby teeth since she was 6...with adult teeth coming right behind the baby teeth falling out. Her dentist did say that she was losing them a little early, but her sister is the same way, and both have lost teeth with new ones to replace them right away!!! She does have a few problems with her teeth not being in the best of shape tho, but that could be from her malnutrition from birth to 18 mo. when she was finally diagnosed. Just thought I would share that. -mom of 4, one with CF, and #5 due in July with poss. CF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 27, 2001 Report Share Posted June 27, 2001 Hi Just thought I'd post about the 'late teeth' issue. My son Zach started getting his teeth at 4 months. He was really good at cutting them too sometimes you didn't know he had a new one until you stuck your finger in his mouth to check. My daughter Rikki- Lee started cutting hers at around 5 months. So both my kids cut theirs early and they both have cf. Just thought I'd share NZ mum to Zach nearly10wcf and Rikki-Lee 8wcf > I find this interesting as well! > > Agustin turned one year old on June 14th and he's only > getting his 5th tooth now -- and he's suffering a lot! ... > Neither his Ped nor his CF Doc said anything about late > teething related to CF ...

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2001 Report Share Posted June 28, 2001 My son didn't start getting teeth until 13 months old - a month after diagnosis.....when he started gaining weight and energy & feeling better. I think it has to do with malnutrition? Carey, Mom to Liam 15 mo. w/CF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2001 Report Share Posted June 29, 2001 Hi all, Well, you guys may be interested in our scenario, since we have twins wcf - At 16.5 months (14 months adjusted), our daughter has a whopping 10 teeth, but our son has none, zero, zilch. I sometimes think I see some buds coming in, but so far nothing. I'm not sure it's a CF thing, or just one of those every baby is different sort of thing. hugs, mommy to Mick and Alli, 16.5 mo twins wcf __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 30, 2001 Report Share Posted June 30, 2001 Hi all, My daughter with cf had her first teeth at 15months. Now she is 2 1/2 years old, and has only 10 teeth, and having big digestive problems every time that she teeths. Doctors have allways said that it has no relation with cf, but I am not so sure....
