Babies: 3 - 6 Months

Hates fruit and veggies

My LO hated rice cereal and would make a yucky face and spit it all out. We waited a bit and then tried oatmeal which she loves. So we are now trying fruits and veggies. So far she has hated everything except the oatmeal, she spits them out and makes a yucky face. I have tried apples, pears, peaches and squash with no luck on any of them. Any one else have this? I've done 3 days of each of them so far. Does it get any better or do I just have a picky eater on my hands?

    So far, Amelia is not into jarred fruits. She loves avocado, squash, and fresh banana though! I'd try some more veggies that aren't as powerful flavors as the fruits, and if she's not loving the jarred stuff, maybe try fresh or frozen, steamed and pureed (bananas and avacados canjust be mashed & mixed with BM or formula). I noticed that the jarred banana is quite tart since it is preserved with citric acid! If nothing else, your baby might like them later. It can take something like 15-20 tries for them to accept a new flavor. Good luck!

  • They say that you need to offer something up to 10 times before you can count it out.  So keep trying.

    Heck even my 2 year old.  I can give her something and she will try it 5 times before she decides she finally likes it.
