Question

My 6 month old daughter just chewed on paper..is it something to worry about?

Answer 1

Alma:

Kids that age will chew on anything.  Is she teething?  If she's trying to scratch her gums because they itch, give her a wash cloth dipped in ice water. Some soft plastic baby toys will also satisfy this urge to gnaw.  If she's drooling, she's teething.  

:)

Answer 2

no dear father, bt if u think there s a problem better to show her a doctor.

tnx

Answer 3

She's all good.  lol I'm embarassed to say,  but I used to chew on paper when I was very little (I'm sure I ate it too).  

Answer 4

No, unless it had alot of ink of it [[from pens or if yew printed it from the computer]].  I ate paper alot when I was a kid ...mostly to freak out other kids, lol.

xD

x*x

Answer 5

no.... its ok... just be sure next time or be careful next time  ... cheer up!

Answer 6

nah...just wait for all the dead bugs haha

Answer 7

If it was just plain paper and didn't have any ink on it I wouldn't worry about it.  Babies this age will put anything in their mouth, so you really have to be vigilant.

Answer 8

it's fine as long as it's not a lot and there's no ink on it. i've tryed it before. if she wants 2 give here half a napkin with juice or watever she drinks.

Answer 9

no not at all...she's six months old. Kids at that age chew on anything. just take the paper away and replace it with one of those plastic chewies they make especially for babies. don't worry about it

Answer 10

my daughter ate paper a lot not a lot at a time but like a little piece a lot..Ahh she loved playing with paper but anyways as long as its not like an entire piece of paper she should be fine..might cause a little constipation

Answer 11

no

Answer 12

Nah, you're fine. Kids put stuff in their mouths all of the time - just keep a closer watch on her, and maybe put some of the things you don't want her chewing on out of her reach - because if she can reach it, she will try to put it in her mouth. Paper is harmless though. You may want to invest in some teething toys for her to gum on - she's probably teething, or just curious about what new things taste like.
