i wasn't prepared for this.... not at her age... i thought it was too soon... there goes another turmoil within me asking questions like had i gone wrong somewhere somehow.... is she getting enough calsium... the four Wives and a Husband kind of questions...
miss nadia nasira complained that her bottom tooth (one of the first to appear) was shaking. i was shaken inside. i asked her to leave the tooth alone and not to meddle with it. in August 2012, she came to me with the tooth...
i asked every dentist i know whether it is quite normal for a child to lose her first tooth at the age of 5 and a half.... apparently, yes to some and no to few... of course, i am a babycentre mum and therefore this link made my worries a little less... nevertheless, i started increasing her calsium intake...
not long after that, while her permenant tooth was growing, she lost her second teeth in October 2012... so, that is the story... she had lost her first two teeth that first appeared at the age of five and a half.... here's mummy's challenge to ensure that there is enough calcium intake to ensure strong bones and teeth...
