Loss of appetite - teething?

My dd is 7.5 months and as yet is still mostly on milk (not interested in solids). She has never been a massive eater as she has had reflux but the last few days she is really off her milk too.

There is no sign that the reflux is causing problems, she doesnt have a temperature and so the only other thing i could think of is teething? She doesnt have any teeth yet.

Is this likely to be the problem ?

thanks

Hiya
Yes, teething often causes them to go off their milk. You could try a smear of teething gel 10 mins before offering the milk and that might get her drinking better.
My DS was also a reflux baby, and as a result we ended up sticking to purees for quite a while as lumps caused hima problem, and then at about 12 months he moved onto proper solids
