My 10 months old son is not eating his food. Sometimes he don't open his mouth & many times he don't swallow. I tried varieties of foods to make him eat. He is just tasting 3 spoons & again the same. Appreciate your suggestions please.

You will need to be patient and continue trying I think. Some tips my friends have shared are: - try to engage baby during meal times but making it "fun". Some of them tells a story and makes animated faces and funny sounds to encourage their babies to eat - try food of different textures and tastes - "design" food into cute characters to pique the baby's interest - eating together as a family, so that baby can see how everyone is enjoying their meals It really takes a lot of patience to get the baby to take to solids. Let the baby decide, offer food and snacks frequently. Ensure that baby is still getting his/her nutrients from breast milk or formula. Slowly, but surely, your baby will start eating soon.
