Holy crap what have I done!

No, no, not abrasive. You're fine. I prefer the idea of them coming out themselves but someone told me they could drown if they lost their tooth so it was just safer all around to cut them? Is that true? If not then I'd love to let them come out on their own. It's more natural and definitely more cute to see little heads peeking out. Thanks for your advice!

If you prefer letting them pip on there own, then just do that. The odds that one of your babies drowns in the egg are pretty slim. The whole debate about cutting vs not cutting is silly.
