ExpertDr. Minal AcharyaNutritionist2 years agoA. dear Mum, This is just the beginning of baby trying top food, getting a taste of different flavors and textures.
it takes time for baby to get used to top foods in addition to breast milk.
it will require your patient and consistent efforts.
keep trying frequently 3 to 4 times a day, in beginning baby my accept only few teaspoon but gradually not force feeding but singing rhymes or song try to increase amount.
keep food ready and try at a time when baby maybe hungriest for example after he waking up
do Not breastfeed before trying top food , keep some gap
try one new food for 3 to 4 days for baby to accept before moving on to another food. Sometimes it may even take longer you may have to try one food for as many as 15 times for baby to get the flavour.
you can give foods like porridges, kheer, homemade cerelac, fruit puree.
