Teething or aversion
My baby is teething right now but has stopped taking semisolid. She only takes milk. Is it normal and temporary or it is aversion? How to make baby eat in sitting position. I lean her in inclined position and she sneezes because of food entering nose. So I doubt  loss of interest in food is because of this aversion or just teething. Presently she is taking only 700 ml milk while teething.

Entry of food into breathing pipe MUST be avoided all the time by careful feeding otherwise it can result into Aspiration pheumoonia so be careful . Aversion can be just temporary or can be due to nose block too . How old is your banu ? If you giving just milk even after 6 months it’s not right you should start supplementary feeding .If you giving measured milk it means you are giving top feed 700 ml , ensure that it’s not powder milk which can result into constipation & don’t give it with bottle .
