Question

Can children eat adult meals after they start teething?

Answer

When children start teething, they may experience some discomfort, which can lead to an increased appetite. At this stage, it’s best to start with milk-based foods and avoid introducing solid foods. Once all the teeth have grown in, you can gradually resume a normal diet. You can give your child a teething ring or a chew toy to soothe the gums, but it’s important not to immediately introduce adult meals; it should be done gradually.
