What do i do if my baby will not eat solids?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Try try again: If your baby does not respond positively to your first attempts at feeding solids, he or she may not be ready! most babies need to be at least 5 months old, and showing clear developmental signs that they are ready for solids (such as watching others eat, trying to sit up, chewing on everything)......If you meet with resistance, or confusion, wait a few days and try again.
