24 answers  My 6 Months Old Baby Refuses Solid Food  Hello
Mamas,  I am having so much trouble feeding solid food to my 6
months old baby. I was told that breastfeeding was the best. It
may be so for the baby but I wasn't especting the downsides of
it. My first daughter was entirely bottle fed and by the age of
6 months she was eating a wide variety of fruits, vegetables and
fruit juice. My new baby refuses the bottle. All she wants is
mommy's breast. Even with my milk in a bottle: no way. She would
rather starve. Last month I started her on rice cereal, then
fruits and vegetables jars (N#1). Somedays she was ravenous,
others she wouldn't touch anything. Now for the past several
days she hasn't opened the mouth once. Since yesterday I managed
to give her very little fruit juice in a cup, but other than
that, only breastmilk will do. What amazes me is that when I
pump to get some milk to make the cereal, I only manage to
extract 3 ounces at the most! How can a baby like her (she isn't
exactly the skinny type)
