My 10 months old baby hates solids :-(

Whatever I try to feed her she eats hardly one or two spoons and simply refuses to eat further, no matter how much I try.
I try to give her mashed potatoes, cereal, wheat and oatmeal porridge, fruits, etc
She is also underweight as per doctor
What should I do now
Expert moms plz reply
How should I make her eat enough
She is formula fed btw

My kid is same way. After trying for 2 years i ve finally resorted to force feeding..though i wont recommend it. If she eats 2 spoons n stops then this means she dsnt like the food,texture,taste etc. Is her food bland? Try different tips eg make food tasty by adding herbs,butter . Some days make food more textured. Some days make it liquidy. See what works for her. Good luck. Kids usually like yogurt. Try tbat. Good luck.

I have tried all these tricks. Still no benefits
She does not like yogurt
People esp my relative and in laws keep saying to me that she is so weak , feed her this feed her that blah blah
I m even tird of people's comments
Well, I really need some good and red tricks . I hope some of moms have stubborn kids like mine

Surround her with awesome looking solids. Shiny red apple, juicy tomato, orange with skin removed, grapes.

Leave them unattended. She will instinctively put them in her mouth. Nirvana follows.

Or wait till she is 11 months old.

Thank you.

Me!!

I know your pain!!

LOL!

The only solution is to keep trying different things to until you find what works for your daughter. I try different things everyday and so much food goes to waste because of it unfortunately. I have noticed he does not like mushy texture...he doesn't eat oatmeal, porridge, avocados, etc. He will eat applesauce with cereal in it. He likes yogurt surprisingly.

He loves rice mixed with either daal or some sort of salan. He likes fish.

The only thing that has worked for us is being persistent with trying different things. We are slowlyyyyyyy getting over this horrendous hump.

I also would recommend Pediasure or something to help her with weight IF its an issue your pediatrician is worried about. I would not add it to her diet if your pediatrician is happy with her health. Some babies are just built differently or start differently. My niece was a picky eater and tiny and is now 6 years old and super healthy.

Thanks reha
I will try something different today then. I hope she will eat that happily

Re: My 10 months old baby hates solids :-(

Its so easy. Show some youtube baby song. While they watching you can feed them the foods. When they get use to the food you dont have to play the baby song anymore. Or give them something to hold something is not suitable for them i.e a big spoon, a book or anything.
