This will help increase the amount of food he/she eats. Also, if you are breastfeeding, try not to give more than 24oz (or 700ml) of milk. Too much milk with too little food may cause iron-deficiency anemia. - You may need to introduce a new food multiple times if your baby is unwilling to try it the first time. - Do not leave your baby unattended during mealtimes. - Do it gradually.
