Does she show interest in grown-up food? It may be worth it to look into the child-led weaning process, at least for ideas. Many kids just aren't interested in the purees.

I know people mix in breastmilk with whatever solid so the taste and smell is somewhat familiar.
I know some babies like eating off their parents plates, I dont know if you have tried that.

@chopsuey119: what baby yogurt do you give your LO? Is it the Yo kind? I haven't tried that yet, I tried giving her the stonyfield's plain kind and tried mixing it with fruit and i think she just hates the sourness.

@EmmeBaby: i haven't had total success with feeding LO either. She has days when she eats everything we put in her mouth and days when she eats 3 bites at every meal and spits out the rest even if they are known foods that she normally loves. It's so frustrating because my sister's baby is such a GOOD eater! It's so fun feeding him because he just opens his mouth wide for you and cant' wait for the next bite.

Someone also told me to try to feed her before you give her a bottle because that might be filling her up and that's why she's not eating.

We sort of did a baby led weaning thing- and just gave her pieces of whatever we were eating for her gnaw on.

Other things she enjoyed- any kind of fruit in a feeder bag (like this- (http://www.amazon.com/Munchkin-Pack-Fresh-Feeder-Colors/dp/B000GK5XY2)- particularly cantaloupe.

Also, anisette toast- it's meant for dipping in tea or coffee, so it was hard as a rock and she could suck on it and teeth on it for a long time.
