my baby was not interested in food.

A. It is common for some babies to show little interest in food until around 10 months old, especially if they are primarily breastfed or formula-fed. Babies have different appetites, and some take longer to adjust to solid foods. What You Can Do: Offer a variety of textures and tastes – Try mashed, pureed, or soft finger foods to see what your baby prefers. Follow a feeding schedule – Offer small meals at regular intervals instead of force-feeding. Encourage self-feeding – Let your baby explore food by offering small, easy-to-hold pieces. Make mealtime fun – Eat together and show excitement about food to encourage interest. Be patient – It’s normal for babies to take time to develop an interest in food. If your baby is still struggling with food or not gaining weight, consult a pediatrician for guidance.
