I'm no MD......but I did some investigating online about this. I found a couple of articles stating that *sometimes* kids/babies who chew on metal have a copper or zinc deficiency and a simple blood test conducted by a pediatrician could find this out. And.....I also saw where some kids who do a lot of mouthing of objects (and your baby is at the age where this is common, as you probably already know).......CAN also have problems with YEAST! Yes, yeast....which is something I was surprised about!!! (hmmmmmmm)
To solve any mysteries about it......I'd ask the pediatrician and also ask for a blood test just to rule out anything, KWIM?
Good luck....and keep us posted. I'm just wondering what it might be too.....
Sincerely,
Linny
