Hello,

For babies usually, there is a strong urge to refuse whatever you give them. Rather than making him eat whatever you want to make them see you people eating it. You shouldn't force and give him but eat in front of him.

Usually, most of the children where they are reared up eat 90% of the food available in the locality. So, whatever is practiced in the home will go to them.

Start making juices or liquid diet foods and try a different kind of foods and beverages. you can also do Google search to know how to be patient with babies.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Archana
