BLW - do i keep shoving in or give it a break

[Herhonesty]

i am a fairly confirmed blw er as i did this with dd1 who took to it like a duck to water the day we put food in front of her. dd2 however is a different kettle of fish. will just stare at the food and show no interest, and i have even tried to give her mashed stuff on a spoon (yes i know very anti bow) and she just pushes it away and turns her head.

so my question is do i keep on sitting her in her highchair every day and put the stuff in front of her or just give it a break for a few days?

How old is she?

6 months 2 weeks. sitting up and picking up most other things and putting in her mouth. just not food.

Personally I'd keep giving milk as normal, and keep sitting her down and offering her food, but not trying any 'persuasion' techniques. Make it clear that it doesn't mater to you either way whether she tries it or not.

Leave it a while.

I have a 9mo who has only in the last week managed to keep anything in his mouth, you don't need to try very hard, it will be easy once she is actually interested.

Oh don't worry about doing it at every meal you have either, maybe just one a day until she shows interest.

Doesn't really matter at this age if she eats nothing as long as she gets her milk. Sit her in the highchair and give her a toy to play with while you eat and try again in a week or so, or sit her on your knee, she might take something from your plate. If she's not interested there isn't a lot you can do
