A. babies at this age have identity of self, express their needs, refusals. 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.
