As of now she has an egg allergy, she had a mild reaction to eggs so we have an appointment scheduled for January. She is able to eat plant based eggs and I am thankful for this alternative.

How did you teach your little one to chew. In the last month or so she just learned to put food to her mouth but she mostly swallows it so I make sure to give her soft foods.

My little boy is almost 3, were on the waitlist to be assessed for autism. He constantly puts objects in his mouth and chews on them. Whether these are hard objects, chewable objects, books, and he quite often seeks these objects out, especially at preschool, has anyone got any advice or alternatives for me to buy him?
