The other thing I found amazing was the couple of babies who at birth - had TEETH. Their poor moms. As if it isn't painful enough starting out breast feeding .........
Ouch.

Red Headed Babies and Teeth at Birth
One thing you don't often see in the Delivery room is a crowning head of BRIGHT RED HAIR. That little bit of light in a darkened room, shining on the head as it is coming out is like a glowing ember of fire......
Wow. That is impressive. I have only seen it a couple of times, it is so rare. Usually, the red hair evolves later....but when it comes right at birth in it's full glory....it's amazing. I love red hair.

I've seen several red-headed newborns. Pretty rare sight!!
I have probably seen perhaps 5 all told which isn't many considering the number of births I have been involved in....4K to 5K or so...Quite spectacular - especially when the lighting is just right...
I'm talking about the BRIGHT orange color....not just "a little bit" or "reddish blonde" or "reddish highlights"....but a real carrot top.....
Those would be two amazing things!
I couldn't imagine.
I have a 15 month old I'm still breast feeding with a mouth full of teeth and she hasn't bit me yet. Yet being the operative word. Couldn't imagine worrying about that right from the get go.
Cheyenne: :) amazing really. Fer shur.
RW: Wow. I am impressed. You have a polite little gal there...15 months and hasn't bit you yet. ;)
I will have to agree....some moms do struggle at the beginning and when there are teeth too.... well..... :(
Those bright orange/red-headed babies are true rarities indeed! I can count on one hand how many "true" reds I've seen. Definitely have seen more of the red-tinted browns or blondes.
Then again, blonde babies are very rare too. (I had one....thought she was bald at first, then realized she was a very, very light blonde. Still is a blonde at age 7!)
Living in an area that has a lot of Dutch ....I saw a lot more blondies than normal. Most of my family had tow-heads...
