My baby is six and half month old. she is not having her solid foods.why? Please suggest me what to do?

Question

I have started the solid foods like rice , barley and oat meal cereal. Initially for the first week i gave rice, then oats later barley. I have mixed with her formula. Initially she was interested to eat but now she is not eating and also she is not drinking the formula well. Please give me some suggestions to make her to eat and drink.

Answer 1

Since every baby is different, the best thing to do is contact your baby's pediatrician  

Answer 2

Maybe she is teething. Children tend to decrease the amount that they are eating when teething and  6 months is a good age for teething. Just keep offering it to her - will eat when hungry.  

Answer 3

How much formula is she drinking? Are you spoon feeding, dont put the cereal in the bottle. You can move on to veggies she might like that better. As long as her weight is ok I wouldnt worry that much. Otherwise I would talk to your doctor. Have you moved on to a faster nipple flow ? The newborn nipples are pretty slow.
