A. Never ever force feed your child. Yes this is a symptom of teething as there is a loss of appetite during teething and kids tend to eat less. massage the gums with a clean cotton cloth and give teethers to chew on. Give more fluids and hard food like carrot and cucumber sticks to chew on.

A. hello it is normal when the child is teething the appetitte of the child can be effected and it would be best to give ve your child small portion of food frequently instead of one large meal at a time so that baby will be able to take it
