dont worry its natural give your baby semi solid foods with this type fo food he will chwew and irritated gums will feel comfortable.

Go to see Homoeopathic Doctor there is medicine Calacaria phos which specially meant of theathing child .Your child will feel good eat good and be theathing comfortably dont worry. Enjoy good motherhood.

Answer 2

When some kids teeth especially older ones they just dont eat. Their mouth hurts and they just dont feel like it. If he is drinking then continue giving as much milk as possible. Brest milk has alot of calories and he should be ok as long as he is drinking plenty of it. If you are still concerned monday call your dr.  

Answer 3

Do nothing... It will pass in a few days.  As long as he is getting nourishment from your breastmilk, he will be fine, even if he should lose 1kg or so.  It is not abnormal for babes to lose weight (a little) once in awhile.

Keep offering him other foods.  Perhaps give him some baby ibuprofen and THEN offer him some other foods.

Good luck!  

Answer 4

Don't worry - its only been a few days. As long as he's getting nourishment from breast feeding, then i wouldn't worry yet.

Most children, when they're teething, become fussy eaters because (obviously) their teeth are hurting.
