how bad does teething affect eating?

[queenballerina]

when teeth came in did your baby get fussy with food?

2 teeth just popped through and my baby seems to have gone off foods she previously loved. she is also refusing lunch and only really eating breakfast..
she also seems to have very varied poo... both too runny and too solid...

just wondering what your baby did?

Runny poo,grumpy, not eating much and a runny nose..sometimes even vomiting. Having had 4dc these are what I remember of those wonderful times! One dc even refused all drinks at the time too...mind you he can still be a pain and he's 4 now .

They can stop eating altogether, or only want certain foods. DS will often refuse anything except breadsticks / ricecakes & cream cheese, even other foods which are normally favourites.

Some puree-fed babies go back to only eating purees when teething.
