Bad Breath
Hi Helen

Our daughter at almost 8 months sometimes has bad breath Especially when she wakes up from her sleep. Two teeth have erupted, but I do not recall that the bad breath had anything to do with the teeth eruption. The smell is similar to mackarel (which she does not eat). She has had bad breath for a month or so.

Should we consult our GP, or is it quite normal?

Thank you in advance.

Best regards
