Accepted Answer

It's common for some toddlers to be picky eaters, but there are strategies you can try to encourage your 15-month-old to eat solids:

1. **Gradual Introduction:** Mix purees with small amounts of soft solids, gradually increasing the proportion of solid food over time.

2. **Different Textures:** Offer a variety of textures and types of solids, like soft-cooked vegetables, small pieces of fruit, or soft scrambled eggs.

3. **Finger Foods:** Provide finger foods that are easy to handle, like small pieces of soft cheese, well-cooked pasta, or soft fruit slices.

4. **Interactive Eating:** Let your baby explore food with their hands and involve them in mealtime.

5. **Consistency:** Keep offering solids regularly, even if your baby initially rejects them.

6. **Model Eating:** Eat with your baby and show them how to eat different types of food.

If the issue persists or you have concerns about their nutrition, consulting a pediatrician or a pediatric dietitian can provide personalized guidance.
