Anybody else’s baby not a fan of purées/baby oatmeal?

Question

My 6 month old doesn’t seem to like anyyyyy food. So far we have tried baby oatmeal, rice, puréed pumpkin, sweet potato, banana oatmeal, mango, apple and butternut squash (multiple times each). She licks the spoon and maybe eats 2-3 tiny spoonfuls but just isn’t interested. My 2 year old loved purées when we introduced them at 5 months and March baby couldn’t care less.

Answer

We get lots of face making and spitting with the first try on a lot of foods, then the next time she loves it, I read that if they reject or appear to not like a food to keep giving it to them to try anyway to develop the palette and avoid picky eater issues. Hope that helps! 😊

Answer

My son isn’t interested in anything so far! It’s so frustrating bc my daughter was blw-ing at 5 months and this guy has zero interest in throwing that tongue thrust away!

Answer

My babe prefers things he can chew himself (his two favorites are eggs and penne noodles) but he does love a couple of naturally puréed foods that we give him on a pre-loaded spoon. He went to town on some hummus and some peanut butter oatmeal the other day. We use regular oats though, not the baby one.
