Solid food: It msy beyour child is teething and it hurts her to chew. Try giving her pain relieving substances like tylenol (acetaminophen) or Ibuprofen before eating. If that doesnt work try waiting a month before introducing solids.

Can wait ...: I'm not a peds doc ( i'm an internist) -but have 3 small children. I think it's okay to wait on the solids until 1 year of age. Brest feeding and/or formula are usually sufficient. When you do add the solids, go with the puréed foods first.
