She is 7 months and has been on solids for about 6 weeks and all of a sudden isn't interested after starting off really well. Is this normal? Should I worry or just keep on offering and not stress? Thanks!

She might be getting ill. DD1 used to refused any food, before having a cold, a virus, or especially a sore throat.
Don't stress give her what she wants may be only milk, or yogurt, mash and bread, were usually what works for mine untill she got better. Don't forget plenty of water.

Thanks Mamaloco, she has a tooth coming through, do you know if this can make her loses her appetite for solids?

Yes that too, because the whole mouth hurts and they don't want anything in it. If she is hungry, I would try a bit of calpol 1/2 h before lunch or diner time and see if it helps.
