NikithaMom of a 11 yr 2 m old boy4 years agoA. hello teethin can happen anytime between 6 months to 9 months or even 14 months in the case of a late bloomer so not to worry.. you can try keeping water in a attractive sipper so the child will be able to take and avoid biscuit as it can affect baby's appetite and try small portions frequently instead of one large meal at a time and force feeding can lead to refusal so better to avoid
