Frustrated Mummy
I’m literally going through it rn. My LO is 10mo and won’t eat any solids, just milk. I’m even more worried / filled with mummy guilt because his last weighing they said he was small for his age. Funny thing however he was a big baby all the way till he was 8 months, I really need all the advice I can get

Has he always been like this or is it a recent thing? When they’re teething or poorly they tend to go off solids. If he’s on the move, then they tend to slim out quite quickly too.
As Lauren said, has he always been like this? My baby went right off her solids when she was poorly, but now she's back to scoffing whatever is put in front of her 😅. Are you offering spoon feeding or BLW? BLW is generally more successful as babies love to explore, so keep offering him different things and offer it BEFORE milk
No advice but here to say I’m going through the same thing with my little boy. He doesn’t really eat much at all and just started nursery, I’m hoping more and more exposure will help him xx

My only advice is keep offering. Milk is supposed to be their main nutrition up until they are one. My son was never big on food. Even after one. But I kept offering and he is over 3 years now and is absolutely fine. My daughter is 10 months and although she’s better than my son was with food, she doesn’t eat a lot. Milk is still her main way of nutrition. And that’s absolutely fine and to be expected. As long as you are offering food and giving milk as needed you don’t need to feel guilty. All kids are different and food can really be a challenge.
