Refusing Solid Food??

Out of the blue DS has started refusing solid food. He's been eating purées for about 2 months just fine then BAM! Started spitting every bite out. I've tried an array of different foods, mesh feeder, mashing up food on his tray and letting him play in it (none ever makes it to his mouth). I know he's hungry when I try, but it doesn't seem to matter. He starts to get pissed and whine/fuss in his highchair. Any ideas/suggestions? Is my baby the only weirdo who refuses food he previously couldn't get enough of? LOL

Re: Refusing Solid Food??

  • Just offer, and don't force. He'll eventually eat again.  Many babies go through phases.

  • MJ had a few days when he just didn't wanna eat! He would play with the spoon. And grab it out of my hand. But none was making it in his mouth! Then he went back to his happy gobbling again :)
  • He's hungry when you try? The recommendation is that babies get the majority of their nutrients from bm/formula so I personally think you shouldn't be offering solids to fill them up. If he's hungry, up his bm/formula! :) like pps said, they go through phases, I'm sure he'll pick it up again!


    He's hungry, but not starving. If he's not hungry at all he won't eat the solid food. I try to offer the solid food 1.5-2 hours after he's nursed so that he's not full, but not starving either.

  • Is he teething? Genevieve is working on two teeth and won't eat much. She mainly just wants to eat my finger!
