It finally happened! My 7 year old lost his first tooth! :)

My sons were six when they lost theirs. I told them to leave it under the pillow and the tooth fairy would leave them a penny. My husband tried to scare them by doing that talk about tying the tooth to the handle of the door and slamming it shut, but luckily we did not have to resort to that. Come to think of it, that was the same thing, my father told me. I was really terrified and then there were all these old black and white movies of some kid screaming his head off when they slammed the door and being in bandages around his head.

My daughter (my youngest) just lost her first tooth 3 days ago! She had worked hard twisting and jiggling it around for 4 days to get it out and when she finally did it fell down the drain in the sink! never mind the tooth fairy still found it! This happened almost exactly a month after her 6th birthday and it too was the front bottom tooth - and her 2nd one looks set to come out any day now! xxxx

wow! You must be thrilled! My son started teething quite late...we noticed his first tooth on his first birthday! My son turned 7 around 10 days back and he lost his first tooth a week after his birthday!!! He's so excited! He's been waiting for it to fall since he was in kindergarten..lol All his friends lost their first tooth when they were around 5! My son has an explanation for it. He has a younger brother who is 9 months. He just started teething. God was waiting for his tooth to give it to his younger brother...lol

My son is 5 and he still has all of his baby teeth. I hope they don't fall out anytime soon!

My kitty has never lost a tooth. Thankfully. It'd be sad if he did I think. The more important question for you is... how much did the "tooth fairy" give him? My co-worker, gave her daughter... I mean...the toothfairy gave her daughter $10 when she lost her first tooth. I think I was jipped as a kid as I only got $1.

Yay! My 6 year old daughter has yet to lose a tooth. Her brothers and stepsister all lost their first teeth around the age of 5. She is very impatient about losing her first tooth. We check for loose ones about once a week! :)

My first child lost his at seven and a half. I do not remember about my daughter, probably about the same. I was a little concerned, too, but the dentist said it was normal. He cut them early, but they stayed in longer, go figure.

Oh my, my oldest is 32 and youngest 16. I guess I'm a horrid mother - I can't remember how old any of the 4 were when they lost their first teeth. I would have to dig baby books out of the boxes - I think I wrote in all of them when that happened.

My 17 month old daughter only has 5 teeth so i don't want to think of loosing a tooth yet... you must have taken good care of your sons teeth because 7 is an old age to loose a first tooth... well congratulations on your family's new milestone...

ha ha... so you took on the role of the tooth fairy and paid him his dollar for his tooth? I can only imagine the feeling of growth you are seeing in your kids when little things like this happens. Now, I am witnessing my wife's nephews growing process, when they first got their long locks of hair, their first tooth, their first dollar from the tooth fairy... etc etc... heh heh... kids!

So does he believe in the tooth fairy and what did she leave him for the tooth. We don't have that custom in India.
