try finger foods. many babies are keen on that.
try changing menu altogether, give chunkier foods.
all these phases typically occur in babies, do not worry.
give all mashed , chunkier foods ,fruits to your baby. keep the timings same as your meal and snacks times, so it will be easy for you to prepare and feed.
see child's likes and dislikes.
do not forcefeed.

Vaishali TanwarMom of a 8 yr 3 m old boy3 years agoA. Hi, Most babies start food rejection around this age. Mostly due to teething or any other illness or deficiency.
Try giving your baby variety of food with different taste, colour and texture.
Sit down with your plate when you are feeding your kid, it will encourage her to see that you are also eating the same food.
Try to make the baby eat while playing.
Restrict juices.
Limit the intake of milk. As liquids fills the baby tummy leaving less space for solids.
Check for anemia, vitamin deficiencies, worms.
Take care and happy parenting.
