Over a week ago (Sept 18th), Lexi discovered that she had a loose tooth. Loose as in it is not solidly grounded any more, but not really moving all over the place either. She cried and cried and cried because she doesn’t want it to fall out. She asked me a million questions like will it hurt, when will it fall out, and will it bleed. I calmly answered her questions and let her know that it happens to EVERYONE. I certainly have not made a big deal out of it.
A week has gone by and it is still barely loose, but it is crooked. Two girls in her class lost teeth this week and she did not think it was cool. She doesn’t like when it gets bumped or she feels it move. Since she doesn’t bother it at all, it might be a while before the lower tooth pushes it out. Unlike my mom, I have NO intention of pulling it.
