Is it time for teething biscuits?

My son was born 6/12 and has 1 tooth, but has been eating solids for awhile now. He loves anything and everything I give him and seems ready for teething biscuits. He eats Gerber puffs already. Is it too early for teething biscuits or similar foods?

I'd try again. It's something new that he just needs to get the hang of. Just supervise him. It may take a few times. It did with mine.

My son was born 6-2 and I tried feeding him cheerios and he was coughing a lot, it made me nervous, should I keep trying?

Just make sure you SUPERVISE!! The biscuits get soggy fast, and some big pieces can break off. I'm giving Cheerios (cheaper and more plentiful than the puffs). She's learning how to use her pincher fingers fast! She feels so accomplished when she gets one in her mouth that she just smiles!! I tried the teething biscuits once, and they made a horrible mess. Plus the box says for 10+ months. I'd just be sure you watch the entire time.

Sure, try them. My son loves them. I just let him eat (or more like play with) them in his highchair, so I can supervise the whole thing :)

Hi...My son was born on 6/26 and he loves teethin biscuits. I dont think it is too early to give it to him, especially if he is eatting solids already. I would think the only thing you should worry about is if your son is not sitting up alone yet. But other wise I would say go for it=o)
