I think thats fine. You do not have to worry too much. My child did not have any teeth until she was 18 months. So yours is more comforting than mine :) I have checked with a dentist and the answer was that children grow at different rate. So its no different for their first tooth. As a parent, i too am worried a lot of times but its always good to ask other parents and see if my child is growing well. Rest assure...this is fine i believe.
