Baby's Bad Breath

My DD is 11.5 months old and the past 2 days I've noticed a "different" smell from her mouth.  I wouldn't call it "bad breath" but it isn't her usual smell from her mouth. I don't know what could be causing this all of a sudden but wondered if anyone else has experienced this?

Do you wipe their gums/brush their teeth?

She has not one tooth yet! Can you believe it? Almost a year old and not one tooth.  I do wipe her gums, I'm just going to bring her in to be sure there is no bacteria or infection causing this.

I have noticed this recently also.  Not bad, just different.  I didn't think too much about it.  I just thought it was from new foods he was trying??

It could be, and I'm just being paranoid about it. I will wait a few more days and if it persists I will call the Dr.

I get paranoid too. Last week DS suddenly started touching his ears, almost pulling on them. I was worried it was an ear infection. Luckily we had an appt the next day for a flu shot so the dr checked him out then and everything was fine, just discovered his ears. I didn't ask about his breath then, but he did check him out to make sure he didn't have a virus or something. I always feel its just better to call so I can have piece of mind.

My co-worker and I just had a conversation about this topic this morning.  She said her daughter has to do pro-biotic pills (?) to keep the "poop breath" at bay.  Apparently it is something to do with when she is sick and the antibiotics.

My daughter had this problem which was due to her adenoids and tonsils.

My first thought was maybe she's getting sick. My ds hasn't had this but I know when I get sick the taste in my mouth changes.  I would see the doc just in case.
