My eight months old doesn't want solids any more. She won't open her mouth even at the start of feeding. she has been doing good since weaning at six
Don’t force your baby or toddler to eat. This often results in children refusing the food and eating less. Don’t give up on new foods!
Patience is the key. You may have to offer your child a new food 10 or 15 times before he will eat it.

Offer 3 to 4 healthy food choices (that your child likes) at each meal. Research shows that children will choose a healthy diet when they are offered a selection of different healthy foods.

Meals are about more than food.They are a time to connect with your child and to support her overall development. Talk with your child during meals and don’t let her eat alone. This helps build strong family relationships.
