A. keep trying different food introduce new food, fruit n veggies. if your baby is not at all accepting solids than you may try baby ked weaning. all the best.

A. I know what ai am going to say is absolutely different thing but in most the cases it helped. Babies are innocent they don't know anythng but once geth indulge in any activity or get attracted to any particular rhymes, poem or song they like listening it or watching it. so first of try giving them fruit not alone but with other things too like apple puree add half banana and dates and 2 pc of almonds and once prepared let the baby taste it and feel it on his/her taste buds. wait for some seconds let the baby ask for more food if still they don't ask. then try to sing some.rhymes and poems with good facial expressions or u can also play it on tv or phone. But make sure try to sing it with action rather than playing otherwise bby will become habitual of watching tv or phone. doing so will help you to keep them busy with ur rhymes and also once they get busy listening to it you can slowly slowly feed them food. it's a completely a different techniques. however follow up for this issue with your padetrician is fine but nothng is serious sometimes baby are slow learners in some areas and they need their own time. don't skip milk even if they refuse for solids as they need nutrition. but trust me doctor will tell u same because for everything a medicine or diagnosis are not required. In some cases parents love and attention plus little of their efforts are enough for baby to adjust with new things.

A. If your baby is still refusing solid foods at the age of 7-8 months, it's worth giving their pediatrician a call and talking to them about it, and even bringing your little one in for a quick checkup
