A. Hello Most of the babies do same what you are saying because they took only mother milk for 6 months. They get used to for that milk. But at the same it is important to add solids after 6months. I would recommend you to add more quantity of breastmilk with two slices of apple. give this puree to your baby.

A. Hi mom some babies they take time to adjust to solid food. so no need to worry. keep trying Till then continue to breastfeed ur baby. If ur baby is rejecting one food offer the other variety of food. Make eating fun.
