Baby at Seven Months Old Not Eating Milk or Food?

Question

What should I do if my seven-month-old baby doesn’t eat milk or food?

Answer

Firstly, check if the baby might have anemia, as this could affect the baby’s appetite. Additionally, a seven-month-old should be starting to introduce solid foods, but this age group should still primarily rely on milk. If the baby is not breastfed, formula milk is the main source of nutrition and should not be completely avoided. Consider switching to a formula that tastes more like breast milk to increase the baby’s acceptance.
