hello guys...have had a nightmare this week with my 9 month old little boy who will not eat anything savoury. he will eat his breakfast no prob, but when it comes to a dinner he keeps spitting it out...any advice? iv tried not to give him yoghurts etc but am worried he'll be hungry. he'll have his bottles fine. he's really grumpy as a result so he must be hungry and im at my wit's end!! thanks in advance xx

'Food Is Fun Until Age One'

In other words, don't worry about it. Give it a few days and try again. And there is nothing wrong with plain yoghurt, perhaps with a bit of apple sauce in it.

what i meant was im worried that he'll think its ok to eat just sweet food? is this me being silly? will he snap out of it? he's been a really good eater so far thats why its baffling me xx

Mine was like this.
He is slowly getting better especially if hungry.
He loves fromage frais and puree fruit pots so I mix it with his savory stuff, slowly increasing the concentration of savory.
Very weird feeding stawberry flavoured spaghetti bolognaise but at least he is getting a balanced diet.
He hates all veg (odd as siblings always loved them) so I used to puree them and mix with fruit.
As he got better I started alternating savory for sweet spoons.
I find this has to be random as he is wise to it if I do one for one.
Mean Mum keeps the spoons of sweet small.
I am now finding he will eat almost a whole portion of savory before refusing.

MY LO (10.5 months) prefers sweet savouries - butternut squash puree with pasta, sweet potato and chicken stew.

May be worth a try?
