Food/eat

[JKL171213]

Can any one pls help? My 7 month old has been refusing his food for about a week now. Especially his milk, the only thing he takes is breast milk. The doctor said I should keep forcing him to eat. He's lost weight. Pls any one experiencing same thing? I'm a new parent and I'm getting frustrated

[ilovepowerhoop]

what foods are you offering? finger foods? puree? Are you splitting up milk feeds from solid feeds? Could he be teething?

You cant force him to eat, you can only offer and encourage him to have something

I had this recently with my 7 month old ds. We had a week of food refusal and him hardly drinking anything. Few days after it calmed down out popped a top tooth.

Sounds like it could be teething.
