Q.

Hello Dr ! My lo weighs 9 kg , and is hungry little one. I have introduced solids to him but he takes 1 or 2 spoon and doesn't open his mouth at all, it's been weeks but immediately cries for milk, he is on formula milk. He takes around 6 oz every feed , every 2 hours. why is he prefering milk than solids even though he is hungry. I have tried giving him solids in different taste,textures but he doesnt take. what to do?

A. Hello, your baby boy is 6 months old and if you are weaning your baby then you should start with semiliquid food like purées and soups and after 7 months switch on to semisolid food items and smashed food items like apple and potato etc
