At 8 months, they will have their permanent teeth....

I was just wondering - how long does it take for the new tooth to come through to replace the baby tooth?

Can there be a bit of bleeding when a tooth comes out?

Not quite sure, but the vet told me that the teething process can take 3-4 months

There was no blood on his tooth, straw or what I could see in his mouth.

I was wondering about bleeding too because a couple of times when Leo has been laying down there is a little bit of dried blood I'm pretty sure its teething related. Haven't seen any teeth fallen out yet. I opened his mouth and could see little "buds" and tiny teeth just poking through.

No, you're not weird

Ive seen quite a bit of blood with Bugs teething especially when he 'chewed' his back tooth out on plastic so they do bleed

Aww bless, seeing them bleed makes me think they're in more pain I'm glad I didn't see any, I would have cried
