during teething phase kids suffer from loss of appetite and they don't like to intake solid food items..so you should consult with your pediatrician for recommendations of some appetizers which will increase the hunger of your baby..

please do the following things:
keep offering different dishes with different taste and different texture.
make food presentation attractive
for example
offer fruits in different shapes like star heart smiles etc using shape cutter
it will help to encourage your child to take interest in food.
try to make your child sit to take meal with whole family because children learn more from imitating their parents.
but please don't force feed or overfeed your child.
as it might happen because of teething
please give massage with clean finger on sore gums of your child
provide silicone teether
yes you can offer external milk.
I suggest cow's milk.
but as you are introducing it first time, offer it in very small quantity and check whether your child is comfortable with it or not.
