#117: Is your baby suddenly refusing a food they loved yesterday? Food rejection can feel frustrating when you’re just starting solid foods, but it’s also a very typical part of how babies learn to eat. In this episode, I’m explaining why babies may accept a food one day and refuse it the next, what this behavior actually means, and how to keep offering foods without pressure so your baby can build diet diversity over time.
Listen to this episode to learn:
1. Why food rejection is a normal part of learning to eat, even when your baby liked that same food yesterday
2. What it actually means when your baby refuses a familiar food and why it does not mean they hate it forever
3. How to keep offering rejected foods without pressure so your baby can build diet diversity over time
