After posting this I made her an experimental "pancake" of mushed banana, sweet potato, egg yolk and baby cereal and she liked it! She ate a bunch of food she usually rejects without knowing it, sneaky mommy! So I'm feeling a *little* less desperate tonight. Maybe I just have to get more creative. I will try a pouch. Table food is meh, same as everything else for her :( hanging in there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/picky-baby-help#post-991300 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 18:15:03 +0000 Kemma 991300@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have you tried eating with her and just feeding her table food? My LO is almost ten months and not keen on "baby" food but loves whatever we're having :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/picky-baby-help#post-991236 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 17:50:50 +0000 cranberryapple 991236@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LOL. I *JUST* complained about this in my own thread a few minutes ago!!! Soooooo frustrating, I feel ya!!! I am especially frustrated with the wastefulness!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/picky-baby-help#post-991203 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 17:41:14 +0000 chopsuey 991203@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would give her what you know she likes.<br /> Mine was picky until.. 18 months or so? She eats well now, but definitely has her favorite foods. Sometimes she'll love something one day and hate it the next. Drives me crazy, but she's growing, healthy and I know she won't starve. -.- </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/picky-baby-help#post-991104 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 16:55:09 +0000 twinmama 991104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine really didn't take to solids until about a year. They preferred finger foods but never ate much, really only liked baby snacks, hated purees, same exact story. I was so stressed about it, but we just kept offering little bits and at just shy of a year it clicked! They have a great appetite for solids now (and want less milk which I'm sure helps), and will try anything, eat very well rounded meals, etc. I think it's probably just time. Some kids just don't get into solids til later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/picky-baby-help#post-991068 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 16:33:32 +0000 DillonLion 991068@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have you tried offering her a pouch? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/picky-baby-help#post-991061 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 16:29:33 +0000 mamimami 991061@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bumping for the afternoon crowd. All you lucky people and your non-picky babies!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/picky-baby-help#post-990161 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 11:52:10 +0000 mamimami 990161@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Help, ladies (and men)! My son ate whatever we gave him -- purees, veggies, fruit, finger foods, whatever. He didn't reject foods until well into toddlerhood. </p> <p>Now I am out of my league with my little girl. She is 9.5 months old. She HATES purees, cereals, yogurt and spoons. HATE. Has never eaten anything liquidy/smushy. She only likes finger foods. And even that she is very picky about. She likes puffs, cheese bits, peaches, mango in her silicone feeder, grapes, peas and carrots, teething biscuits, toast and that's kind of it. Even those things, she only eats a TINY bit except for puffs of course. (WTH is in those things, they're like baby crack?)</p> <p>I know I just have to keep offering foods but it just feels like SUCH a waste. Like, I already know she's going to hate it. Every day I leave a puree with the nanny and every day she refuses to eat it, even if it's something she likes like peaches. (I am hesitant to have her on finger food when I'm not there. Paranoia, I know.)</p> <p>Did you have a picky baby? Did he or she grow out of it or did you do something to change it? </p>
