Baby teeth

Out of curiosity, what have other people done with their kids baby teeth
that they have lost. Have you kept all of them, kept only the first, threw
them away, etc....? For some reason, I am having trouble throwing them away,
but at the same time, I feel silly for keeping the teeth.

I'm sorry but I'm LOL right now. It never occurred to me to save teeth.
:-) I find incredibly sweet now that I think about it. I've thrown them
out. I didn't save locks of hair though either.

Rosalie B....

I put the locks of hair in the baby book. I have given the latest
grandchild a little silver box with a bunny on it (as a birth present)
to put the baby teeth in.

BTW this is #11 grandchild (and also the last one) - born December
2005.

No don't feel silly!! I have all the girls' teeth and always will! And
my mom kept all our teeth also.

We've tossed the baby teeth. It's never occurred to us to save them. A
couple of times, DD lost a tooth at school and then dropped it somewhere
between the classroom and the car, so I don't think we're the type of
family that's meant to keep teeth.

Just me :)...

It's not silly Sue! My MIL gave us a little box to keep them in the
week DS was born. She also brought over a box of DH's baby stuff,
which included a similar little silver box as she gave us. And Yes, it
did include his teeth. She has them from all 4 of her kids, and
we'll be keeping some of DS's.

i have all my own baby teeth... :) i think it's about time
for them to go though, since they're breaking into pieces.
Boo hasn't lost any teeth & likely won't for another year or
so, but he's had 4 pulled. of the 4, only one had any savable
part, so i do have that tucked away.
it is kind of a silly thing to save, but they really don't
take much room. i kept mine in an old pill bottle. :)
