I cried today

My little boy will not! And refuses to eat solids. For 5 months I've tried and no go I think the frustration and always trying to be patient took over me and i broke down.

I feel alone through this

Didn't want to read and run! Don't get upset. What type of foods are you offering? I don't know about the US but in the UK we are told that food is fun until one, and that they will get everything they need from milk until then.

My LO is 7.5 months so a bit younger than yours and I am loosely following baby led weaning so mainly finger foods but also fruit purée on a spoon etc.

Your LO will get there eventually! It may just be that he doesn't have an interest in eating yet and one day it will just happen. Hang in there xx

Hi Hun, no advice. I'm in the same boat with my 10 mos old. She won't eat anything except veggie puffs. Just wanted to let you know you're not alone! It's very stressful I always try to tell myself I don't know a single adult who has a bottle & they WILL get it one day.
