POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 6 m old boy4 months agoA. It’s common for 10-month-old babies to have days when they eat less or seem disinterested in solid food. At this age, babies are still learning to eat and explore textures and tastes. Here are some practical tips to encourage better eating:
Offer Finger Foods: Babies love to self-feed. Try soft, easy-to-hold options like small banana pieces, boiled carrot sticks, steamed broccoli, or soft dosa/idli pieces.
Eat Together: Let your baby see you eat. Babies often mimic adults, so sitting together during meals can encourage them to try what you’re eating.
Avoid Forcing: Don’t force-feed. Let the baby decide how much to eat. Forcing can lead to aversion and mealtime stress.
Try Variety: Offer different textures and flavors—mashed rice with dal, fruit purees, khichdi, curd rice, upma, soft roti dipped in dal, or oats porridge.
Keep Distractions Away: Avoid screen time or toys during meals. Focused, calm mealtimes help babies eat better.
Follow a Schedule: Offer solids at consistent times (2–3 meals and 1–2 snacks daily), with enough gaps between milk feeds and solid meals so the baby feels hungry.
Check for Teething or Illness: If eating has suddenly decreased, teething or minor illness may be the cause. It usually improves in a few days.
Continue breastfeeding or formula feeding alongside, as milk remains a key source of nutrition at this
