Hi,
A newbie to this forum (hello!)...and I'm sure this has been posted a gazillion times...but I have a DD who won't eat!
She's nearly 7 months old and is exclusively breastfed. She has been sitting unaided since she was 5.5 months. I started her on solids when she got to 6 months - initially tried baby rice mixed with expressed milk but that was rejected. Have since tried all sorts of fruit and vegetables but the vast majority get given to the dog (who is delighted!). The only thing she has willingly opened her mouth for repeatedly is pear (but even this is not failsafe - it will work sometimes but not others!).
I am not keen on pushing her to eat as I don't want it to become an issue, but at the same time I'm concerned that she's not eating! She has started to wake earlier in the mornings (she was sleeping till 7am but is now waking closer to 6 - am dreading tomorrow with the clocks going back!).
Has anyone any suggestions or is it just a matter of perservering and hoping she will eat eventually.
Thanks in advance!
