carrots and cucumbers?

[Kristine]

My son is 7 months old and we went out to eat with my parents and gave Matthew a cucumber to chew on (we wasn't interested in any of the toys I brought for him) and he loved it. We rinsed it off in cold water and he couldn't get enough of it. I forgot to mention that he just had his first tooth come in last week. I feel letting a baby chew on cucubers and carrots (large ones not to small to choke on) is kind of strange. What do you all think? Did you ever give your babies anything out of the ordanary to nibble on when they were small?
Thanks for sharing.

I would think that at 7 months a cucumber would be ok... I would just maybe remove the seeds. I don't know about carrots.

Remember I don't have children so its just my opinion. I'm definatly not an expert!!!!! LOL
