Teething and not eating

Is it normal for a teething baby to reject solids? This didn't happen with my first, but 7-month-old dd is wanting just breast milk. Is it normal, and OK for me to go along with this?

My LO is also reluctant to eat while teething. He is having all his bottles but considerably less to eat than previously as a lot is launched over the side of the Highchair! I have also noticed that he doesn't like certain textures, and will spit it back out, and is also very sensitive to heat, so I am letting his food cool down to almost cold for him to eat. I would say keep offering food and don't worry too much but if ou are concerned maybe have a chat with your health visitor.
