8 month old not taking solids

2024-01-15 12:07:57
Hello doctor, My 8 month old is not taking solids. Once out of 5 times may be. That also just 2-3 baby spoons. I have tried different colours, textures and what not. She keeps demanding for breastmilk. I have no issue in breastfeeding her but very worried about her food habits and weight gain.
