Any tips?

Question

Any tips on getting baby to start solids? My baby doesn’t like anything. She’s 5.5 months, doc told us she could have started at 4 months (showed readiness signs) but we decided to wait til now.
So far she’s had carrot purée, sweet potato purée, and banana. Hated it all and wouldn’t eat.

Answer

She might not actually be ready. Pause for a little while and start again. 
Also no medical bodies recommend starting solids earlier than 6 months anymore. So it is perfectly normal to wait some more.

Answer

Some babies aren’t ready despite readiness signs. My second didn’t care at all about solids until he was 10 months old. I offered them every day, both purees and table food hoping he’d like one of them, but nope he wanted nothing to do with food until later.

Answer

Dont force her if she diesnt want it, which is sounds kike she doesnt. 
Food before one is just for fun anyway.

Answer

Baby might not be ready. Give her a couple weeks and try again.

Answer

Just keep introducing new foods and textures. It takes multiple exposures :)
