My 16month old daughter is doing the same thing..she is chewing on the crib sometimes..but she chews on the wooden tables to the point where the splinters are getting in her mouth and she makes a yucky face and spits them out. I get so afraid she will swallow them and they will hurt her..she was chewing the cabinet shelves in the kitchen driving me crazy until we put on cabinet locks..it's funny because she doesn't want what is in the cabinet..just the wooden shelf..lol. She will chew the doors and our kitchen table if we don't block her off w/a baby gate. I am relieved in a way to see that other people are having the same issue..so I can get some help on this matter as well. Thanks!
Thank you for your responses. I did call my dr. and he said she is more than likely teething. I noticed her cheeks being rosy today so I think that is probably the case. She already has 6 teeth, so I was hoping for a little break. I joked with my husband that most people have to worry about their dogs chewing the furniture, we have to worry about our baby! Wonder if you can use that bitter apple spray you use to keep pets from chewing…I’m just kidding…maybe =)
