6 month old, first week How your baby is growingThis could be
the month your baby cuts her first tooth. Usually one of the
bottom front teeth appears, followed by its neighbour and then
the two top front teeth. Once your baby's first teeth appear,
gently clean them twice a day with a baby toothbrush or your
finger plus a smear of children's fluoride toothpaste. If your
baby is reluctant at first, try to turn it into a game. Your
baby’s embarking on her first week of solid food. What will she
like? What can she safely eat? For ideas and inspiration take a
look at our mum-and-baby meal planners. Let’s playCan your baby
clap her hands yet? Encourage her to learn this fun skill. See
two great games for you and your baby to play this week. Your
life: eating wellYour baby may be trying her first foods, but
you need to make sure you're getting the right food too. Heavy
food can make you feel sluggish, so try to keep meals and snacks
light and packed with goodness to keep your energy levels up.
