A. If your baby is still refusing solid foods at the age of 7 to 8 months, it's worth giving their pediatrician a call. You might even need to bring your little one in for a quick checkup so the doctor can tell you exactly why your child is not eating or tolerating solid foods.Experiment with different textures to see what your baby likes. Your baby may like purees, or he may prefer foods he can chew, such as chopped fruit or toast. If you do start with purees though, try to move him on to mashed or lumpy food as soon as possible, to help him learn to chew.The number one thing you can do is model!Ensure baby is sitting properly.Make sure your baby comes to the table hungry.Avoid feeding them yourself.Consider the size and texture of the foods.Be patient.Create a happy, safe eating environment.The most common reasons for a healthy thriving child to refuse solid foods is because she fills up on milk (breast, formula or other) and is not hungry for other food, or because she prefers to drink milk rather than eat solids.

A. Can be due to weather actually. Keep monitoring Dont force feed they won't have. Have a weekly plan that won't repeat any food again. Make it colorful, attractive, see what other healthy alternatives can be given
