A. If in 9 months, baby is resisting food, then there could be two main reasons - Teething and Constipation. If you notice symtoms like excessive drooling, mild fever, loose motions, putting everything in mouth, etc. then it is the teething phase he is going through. Therefore, do not overfeed and give a chilled teether to chew on. Massage gums with a clean finger or cotton cloth to ease them. If you feel, baby's stomach is hard and he is facing problem in passing stool, then there is an indigestion problem. To cure it, avoid overfeeding and include fiber rich foods. Massage tummy in circular motion and move legs in cycling rotation.
