A. Hi kids usually start to chew solid food when their back teeth erupt.. you can give food in small pieces to let your child eat slowly and gradually.. give fruit slices of cucumber, carrot, banana, papaya to chew on

Q. hello, my baby boy is 17 month. he has got only 4 front teeth so far. is it normal? also he eats only soft smashed food. he doesnt eat hard food or finger food. i tried introducing to him bt he gags alot. and also it seems like he is not interested in taking food with his hand and put it in his mouth. whenever i give him finger food or fruits, he doesnt take in his hand or starts playing with it... please suggest something.
