Would this be OK for a 7 month old to gnaw on? She only has 1 tooth, another coming, but has only been eating puree as "solids" and formula.

My daughter is 9 months old. But this wafer melted in her mouth, she didn't need to use her teeth just the pressure of her gums would have been enough. If your baby has the chewing motions down then it shouldn't be a problem.

I would have given it to my son earlier than 9 months if I realized they were out there. They're hard enough that she has to work to get a piece off and it won't be large. Mostly, she'll probably get crumbs and become a cute mess.

Should be. Mine only had two teeth and had only had purees before starting this.

I had purchased these for 22 month old, I was hoping that they would be similar Mum Mums. (I introduced Mum Mums to my baby when he was 7 months old). They are soft and dissolve right away.

I gave this to a baby between 4-5 months old and she can get a good grip on it as well as chew--I would say up to a 1 year old at least.

I didn't have my dog at that age so I can't say for sure but I think it would be fine. If you do decide to let her chew on it, definitely take it from her when it gets small...you don't want her to choke on it.

I'd be sure to have a diaper on her as it's real quick. Here's a tip I found on Pinterest: use a paste of baking soda and food coloring (we like green) for "food" because there were several complaints about the food mix in the set getting clogged up the tube and getting smelly. I tried it once but I think the food mix was easier to feed....maybe my paste was too watery. Hope this helps

Age 6 months and up, when they can start eating real food. We usually stuff it with frozen banana or berries or frozen peas. The cold is good for teething.

I don't think you're supposed to let them chew on it. You just brush their teeth with it and put it away. If they inadvertently bite down on it, I don't think that should be any issue.

Our "puppy" is almost 14 years old and though I have brushed her teeth daily since she was a baby she has lost several as teeth problems are common for her breed. I do think this has helped some what but at her age it is not a miracle cure. She does like the taste though :)

I would cut off 1" and feed her. Of course, it also depends on activity level. If she is very active, you may want to feed her 1 1/2".

I'd probably wait another month or so. They do "melt" in their mouths, but until he's really good at eating chunkier purees and starts some solids I'd hold off on these. Their fine motor skills aren't developed enough yet to have the coordination to pick it up and put it in their mouth. I've always started with organic baby mum mums (rice rusk). It's large enough for them to hold and it melts faster than the puffs do.

They dissolve very quickly in the mouth and it takes good according to my kids so I don't know why you'd want to dissolve it. I don't think you'd really want to give it to a kid younger than around 3 so at that age they should be able to let it sit in their mouth.

We started using it at six months. It does not have a age minimum. This tooth paste is completely safe and no harm caused if swallowed. for more information look on the ewg website, it will show this tooth paste is completely natural

Probably ok if your 17 month old doesn't like to put stuff in his/her mouth. It is non-toxic but is a choking hazard depending on the size of the piece. It isn't particularly messy but play with it on a very washable table.

How many do you need in the 1st year? I a actually have 5 bottles so I get a bottle that already has the nipple and then 2 packages of 2. 1 hole is great for the 1st few months, then when your baby is eating more, go to 2 holes and then after a few months go to 3 holes. Don't worry about following the timeline set by Avent. If the milk is thicker more holes is better but just know that your baby may not be ready for more holes if they spill a lot. Also if they get suction blisters on their lips, that's a clear sign to up the holes on the nipples. I hope that helps. Good luck!

definitely not...I check EVERYTHING out w/ my vet before I give it to "my boys". My vet suggested this for them when they were puppies.They are noq 5 and 6 and their teeth a perfect...I also put Tropiclean in their food and a teethcleaning bone everyday.

My son was eating them before he had teeth. They soften up quickly so it may get messy (and sticky). But without teeth you will have to keep a close eye because the pieces may break off too big for a little one that isn't use to eating something solid. But my son took to them quickly and enjoyed feeding himself.

We used this from birth without any problems, but we also breasted half the time as well. She not a "toddler" quite yet but doesn't take formula anymore because she's eating solids.

My puppy is 6 months, 30 lbs, and I would classify her as a moderate chewer. She's had it for a little while now. I got her the "giant" one. It's not all that easy for her to bring around, but she learned how, and it is standing the test of a puppy who is growing molars. She mostly only uses it when she gets into really aggressive chewing spurts. She mostly uses stuffed animals (they don't last long, but she loves 'em), a rope, and a red Kong bone.
