This led me to do what every parent in this age would do - consult the internet. Sue and I fear that if she continues, she'll have nubs soon where she used to have teeth.
Of course, the Internet has proven this half-assed theory completely wrong. It's also given a name to Emily's new habit "bruxism"! Apparently, the worst thing about Emily grinding her teeth is the noise we have to put up with.
The Internet, that bastion of truth, even said that Emily's not alone in her grinding and that kids generally start around 3 - 3.5 years of age. Finally, Emily's not developmentally delayed at something. Take that nature!
The quite search on the web has alleviated my fears that Emily's doing something that could be harmful, so I can go back to worrying about everything else. Yay.
