When to worry about teething in a toddler?
James is almost 20 months and still doesn't have the majority of his teeth. He has the 4 on top, 2 and a half on the bottom (I say half because it erupted about a month and a half ago and hasn't really grown  ), and 4 molars. There are ZERO signs of any other teeth coming in.
Shouldn't he have some more by now? Should I discuss this with the ped?

Re: When to worry about teething in a toddler?
Even though Nicholas is much younger, he has nothing! My mom was telling me over the weekend my brother didn't get his first tooth until he was 13 months & then slowly the rest came in. He didn't have a full mouth of teeth until well over 2...

Thanks Kristen!  I nearly passed out the last time I saw all of JJ's teeth. 
I'm also concerned that it might impact his speech. He speaks really well, but will he continue to do so when his teeth all come in? Will his tongue fall differently when he says words?

DS is 18 months old and has 6.5 teeth...He has been working on his 1 year molars for almost 5 months. They will not come through his gum....Pedi says he is fine... I just hate to see him suffer for so long with them...
