If baby doesn't accept solid food at this stage she's probably just not ready yet. You can try again at 6 months. Also better to start with fruits like apple, banana, I wouldn't introduce anchovies or veggies as a first food.

It’s normal for baby to dislike food at first as they are still not used to texture. Don’t give up. Still try feeding small amount for them to accept it. Milk is still the priority now.

Try again a few more weeks ltr. It's still quote early to give solid. No worries, mummy! :)

Why not wait till your baby is 6 months old when she is showing more interest to adult food?
