Saachi's first teeth

Finally, Saachi got her first teeth - at around 14th months !
Today, she has about 3 and a half teeth, and she smiles that rabbit-smile of hers, putting out the top two.

Man, we'd been waiting for it for so long.
Shalu was asking the doctor if she could possibly give her some vitamin supplements or some such stuff so that the first teeth would make an appearance. "Maybe some calcium, you know", she had said helpfully.

The doctor's point was, simply, "Have you ever met an adult who didn't sprout teeth?", and that was that. So Saachi did not really get teeth-vitamins or calcium. The doctor DID prescribe some iron-laced vitamins, though. Which made the Chemist raise an eyebrow or two. "That much?! Are you sure? Would you ring up your doctor and confirm?"

But that is a whole different story now, isn't it?

Not quite germane to the issue. It's germane, isn't it? Though what has it got to do with germans, i've never quite been able to make out.
