Food

Is anyone else's baby NOT very interested in foods? I try every day and some days he will have a little and others he doesn't want any at all. My doctor said by 9 months the amount of milk they drink and food they eat should be about equal.. we're no where near that.

It took my lo a good month before she was actually enjoying food and actually consuming it. I was told as long since she's breast fed to just keep trying but not to force it on her and when she's ready, she's ready. Now she loves food! Haha.

I have tried both purées and pieces of food. With the pieces he will put them in his mouth and suck on them but eventually spit them out lol.. purées are a hit or miss.. if I give him the squeeze pouches he likes holding them and sucking from them, but won't take one every time I offer. He actually does like puffs though! He's EBF but he only drinks 4-5 times a day and I truly have no idea how much he drinks each time since it's all in my boobs ?. He's just not that interested in food at all.. it seems like he will drink just enough so he's no longer hungry and that's it. I'm gonna weigh him tomorrow for his 8 month update, but the last time he was weighed he hadn't gained anything in 2 weeks.. I hate obsessing over this, but I really worry.

My lo doesn't love food either. He hates purees. He does much better with baby led weaning. I give him some of what I have usually and he's finally starting to eat some. It's taken about 2 months of solid trying. I was just consistent in offering it once a day until he started eating and now do twice a day. He def still has way more milk.

He also hates bland food. He doesn't like plain avocado but loves it with garlic powder or guacamole. I just put some on a carrot or piece of homemade bread. He also hated plain sweet potatoes but loves them with cinnamon. Try adding spices and just be consistent. It's frustrating but I just tell myself he'll eat someday haha

As long as you continue to try with different foods I think your doing what you can. Maybe you could try different fruits with his morning cereal. Or have you tried letting him feed hisself like with puffs?

My little guy doesn't want anything to do with any kind of food! He literally will take a bite and look at me like I'm crazy and spits it out. He still breastfeeds every 2 1/2 hours since he's not getting anything else. I haven't talked to his doc but plan on doing so at his apt next week. I don't think it's a big deal as long as they are getting enough breastmilk or formula.

I've tried both at room temperature and heated. The only thing that he really enjoys is his breakfast cereal and bananas.

Do you heat his or her food? Mine wasn't too interested and started heating it yesterday and he's eating about half a jar at one sitting from maybe 5-6 bites.
