Re: Teething Problem
The important signs and symptoms of teething will be red and swollen gums,red flushed cheek or face, often rubbing their ears on the same side as the tooth which is coming through,dribbling more than usual,generally being more unsettled & Inconsistent feeding.
Teething starts around 6 months. There's little evidence that fever or diarrhea is caused by it and certainly should not generally unwell . If you feel your child is unwell, do see a doctor.
General measures like rubbing the gums with clean finger, chewing/biting on a cool vegetable or fruit or even a teething ring. Paracetamol etc may also help.
Hope this is useful for you and your child.

If she is not interested in solids, don't force her especially when she is not feeling well. Keep feeding her. If needed supplement with formula.
