A. hi during the teething phase kids suffer from loss of appetite and slow weight gain. gently massage the gum pad area with clean finger tip or moist cold cotton cloth

A. There is no need to be worried about weight gain if the baby is active and healthy. Feed them with nutritious meals Don't force feed.Teething is also different for each ones,mine get her first after 12 months.Be the best mom for your baby, happy parenting:)

A. Don’t worry about it that can come by the time of 17 and if it doesn’t then you can consult the dentist but as of now this is not a problem you really should start giving more of proteins in the diet because right now the weight would be rather a bigger concern over anything else
