Dear mum, it is very common for babies to be fussy eaters at this age. You need to be patient and keep trying. Try to give finger foods to your baby like thin slices of apple, peanut butter bread, idli pieces which baby can have on own in your supervision. Try to give food in an attractive manner, interesting shapes of bread and parantha, colourful combination of cut fruits. Don’t force feed.

hello you can try with different food option and recipe and also give baby small portion of food frequently instead of one large meal at a time a d try changing the consistency of the food slowly day by day so the baby will get used to it
