Is It Normal The Breast Fed Baby Avoid Taking Solid Food?
My 7 months old breastfed baby girl is still not ready to eat solid foods. She hardly opens her mouth and refuses to eat anything. Sometimes she will eat fruits only but most of the time she refuses food. I started introducing her solid food when she was 6 months old but till now she just wanted to be breastfed only. Is it normal?

Its perfectly noral and there is absolutely no cause for concern.
Every child has their own development and food/energy requirements.
There is no cause for concern as long as child is gaining weight adequately.
Take Care
