My baby ya 7 months and he doesn’t like to eat except to take his milk but my breast milk is now low than before and it’s kinda frustrating when I have prepared his food and once he sees(if that’s the correct word) a plate n a spoon that’s it and he will go to an extra mild cry like he’s beaten 😔😔.
Anyone else experiencing this or just suggest something that will work

There’s a saying: Food before one is for fun. Everything we feed them right now should just be for them to taste, touch, explore they’re not filling up on a meal as the majority of their calories should still be coming either from breast milk or formula.
Are you spoon feeding him or baby led weaning? There’s no right or wrong answer but whatever you’re doing maybe try the opposite to just switch it up? Even if you’re not comfortable with solid food like baby led weaning you could let him have a purée with a spoon/his hands by himself just let him explore.

He should be having milk first and then you introduce foods after about 30 min
Agree with the above with helping make meal times more fun and less forced

Is your kid meeting all the requirements to start solid food? Are you maybe trying to pressure the eating too much? (Even if youre using purees, baby should be taking spoon from you or leaning eagerly towards the food and opening their mouth, any forcing of food into their mouth can be very traumatic)
If your supply is low, talk to a lactation consultant or another medical professional so they can advise on supplementing with formula, not food, as this will ensure your baby is getting all the proper nutrients 😊
Hope this all helps!
