Hi
My daughter is 9 1/2 mths old. And i am not able to introduce any new food. She immediately rejects and vomits out everything.

Hence it is difficult for me introduce anything new which is highly nutrious. and i am really upset that she will not get enough nutrient with daily intake.

Is there anyway i could get her consume.
pls advise.

thanks radha mathura replied. hi radha,

first, you should remember one thing. if the child denies to eat any new food, please don't try it.
they should take it with more liking. they should ask for more when you stop it. the amount of food should be in that way, say start from a minimum amt and slowly increase it.
after all, babies, intestine are so tender and they can't bear new foods more.
what i wish to tell you is, if you daughter is rejects it, try adding a spoon of the veggie puree to any of the cereal like rice, brown rice or wheat and try giving it.
then test for two things...firstly if she likes it and consumes it without hesitation, secondly wait for two days and monitor for allergies or difference in stools.
if you find she is comfortable with it, then try increase it a bit.
even if that doesn't work, it would be better to visit the pediac.
don't lose hopes and all the best.

thanks mathura
