I started weaning my son at about 4 1/2-5 mouths on baby rice was doing fab then started on other flavours was doing ok but would only take fruity food
Then he got very poorly and refused all food just wanted milk
So then when he was better tryed again but this time refused every thing again so I tryed jars do good but again only taking fruity ones or breakfast ones
He us now 9 mouths only and he gone back to just wanting milk
He will not take any thing els
Iv tryed him with toast pasta mash
He will either refuse it or gag till he sick

Please help me as I already have a daughter who is dairy and soya intolerant

Have you tried him with foods he feeds himself, no spoons involved? dump family food onto his hi chair tray and let him at it, no baby jar or packet food, just what you have for your meals

Up until 12 months milk ( breast or formula) is their main source of nutrition anyway, you can relax a lot I think, he'll soon get the swing of it.

Of course, as in all things, if you are still concerned do see your HV or GP for advice

No solution, I've only just started, but wanted to say good luck and I'm sure the Hv would be supportive - or your gp if not.
