Why doesn't my daughter seem interested anymore?!

Question

My daughters 7 months old and for the last week or so she doesn't seem interested in any foods but her bottle..I started her on solid foods at 6 months and she did fine for awhile but now she doesn't seem into eating anymore..whats going on?!

Answer 1

They go through phases...they go through growth spurts and sometimes feel like they need more breastmilk/formula to keep up with it.  Even though they are so little they know what they are doing.  Just keep offering her solids and don't get upset when she doesn't eat them, one day she will.  

Answer 2

I think that is totally normal. There are some days when my son wants to nurse all day and wants nothing to do with solids and other times when he inhales his solids and barely nurses throughout the day.

I've noticed especially before hitting a milestone he is much more interested in milk and could care less about food.

Just keep offering it and don't force it. Put some cut up fruit on babies tray and let baby try and self feed. Or, try skipping foods for a week or two and see if baby takes a renewed interest after some time passes. If baby is grabbing for your plate you will know she is ready again.

Answer 3

my daughter did the same thing just last week  but now she is back to wanting her food again  i think it is just a phase they go through  good luck  

Answer 4

They go through phases, don't worry. Just keep trying with her. Try mixing some of the fruit ones with some rice cereal. My son loved that. It's a new texture so it may spark her interest again.

Don't give up!

Answer 5

yes this is normal, it may also be a sign of teething! keep trying and she'll eventualy take it again!
