Teething in babies
Hello Doctor, our 13 months old kid still didn't get a single tooth. It seems to be no teething at this stage. We went to a pediatric doctor nearby. Doctor has told to wait till 15 months of age and if still teething won't occurred then have to go for a blood test to know the vitamin D deficiency. Kindly let us know is there any alternative way for this.
