Teething Biscuit

As you all know, I follow what ever my Doctor says to the tee. I asked my dr (well Easton's dr) about giving him ANY type of food other than baby food. She said that she would not recommned it due to him not crawling(on hands and knees) and having no teeth. I was okay with that, I really was. But everyone in the world kept telling me it was okay to try new things. And when they were kids they were eating steaks at this age, and blah blah blah. So I caved in and bought teeth biscuits. Now I should of known not to give them to him the box clearly states for children
9 months and older. But I bought them and when we got home I gave them to him. At first he had no idea what to do with it. But very soon he just put it in his mouth like anything else and started to chew(gum) on it. He was smiling and loving it. So in my head I was thinking, maybe everyone was right. I have to let go a little and explore. Well not even 15 seconds after I thought that, he started turning red and coughing. I "burped' him trying to make him not cough thinking that it just went down the wrong way. But that didn't work. He was turning brighter red and wasn't coughing as much. So I got him out of his highchair and kinda hard hit his back hoping to get the piece up. Well he did throw it back up and I mean throw that and everything he ate back up. And yes, there was a decent size biscuit that he swallowed and choked on. So of course then I felt guilty because I knew all the things that the box labeled to see if they were ready to eat Easton was not. But I gave him a bottle of juice and I was super mom again( In Easton's eyes). But needless to say I will NOT be giving him these biscuits anytime soon, unless he gets tons of teeth in the very near future. And I will be listening to my Doctor. Ah, now I see why the first baby is the "test baby" because everything is so new and adventurous.
