My baby is going through teething phase and his upper teeth are erupting first. I'm told that bottom teeth erupt first. Is it normal? Also, what measures should I take to soothe him at this time?

A. For many babies, the bottom front teeth (also known as lower central incisors) appear first, at around 6 to 10 months. It's also normal for the top front teeth (or upper central incisors) to come in on the same schedule, at around 8 to 12 months.
