Getting 17 Month Old to Brush Teeth.
My daugther allowed us to brush her first 2 teeth when she was 7 months old but after she got her top two at about 10 months she has grown more and more resistant to allowing us to brush her teeth. Now at 17 months she freaks out and has a meltdown every time. We have tried different brushes, playing games, watching in mirror, letting her do it first but it always ends up my husband holding her arms and me trying to get in her mouth. She acts like she is scared, hurting, mad that were invading her mouth??? I have no idea why she gets so...
