Only on formula milk
My daughter is 7 months 15 days old and she completely refuses to take any solid food. I tried different solids but she tightly closes her mouth and keeps crying with closed mouth.
She is only on formula milk (around 400 ml daily).
Is this going to cause any health issues for her being only on formula milk?
