A. For a 7-month-old who isn't eating solids yet, consider these tips to encourage eating: 1. **Start Small:** Begin with single-ingredient purees or mashed foods. Common first foods include rice cereal, mashed bananas, or pureed sweet potatoes. 2. **Variety:** Introduce a variety of flavors and textures gradually to find what your baby might prefer. 3. **Consistency:** Offer solids at regular meal times alongside breastfeeding or formula to help your baby get used to the idea of eating. 4. **Positive Association:** Make mealtime pleasant and stress-free. Avoid pressuring your baby to eat. 5. **Self-Feeding:** Offer small, soft pieces of food that your baby can pick up and explore. 6. **Patience:** It can take several tries before a baby accepts new foods. If your baby continues to refuse solids or shows other signs of concern, consult a pediatrician to ensure there are no underlying issues.
