BLW&Teething

All has been going amazingly well with BLW. DD (7mo) seemed to grasp it pretty quick and has been wolfing down most things the last 7 weeks.

However I am sure she is teething. First picked up by nursery with loose nappies. Defo red cheeks and bit miserable. Very much off food. Still eats bits&bobs but nothing like she has been and virtually nothing for dinner last 4 nights. Not helped by fact that this coincides with her first week full time at nursery.

I am just riding it out. Keep offering her what we' re eating and trying not to stress. Convinced myself I can see 'something' on lower gum...is it going to be like this with all 24 of them?

Any advice/reassurance?

Well you do get a break! DS had 7 teeth come through in quick succession, and then nothing at all for months.

FWIW DS's appetite varied a lot at that age. (We did BLW). I assume she's still getting milk (BF or formula) She'll take what she needs from the milk.
