My 6 month old boy is a generally healthy, happy baby. But we have been trying to feed him solids for about a month and he refuses to eat. We've offered him rice cereal, oatmeal, pea puree, carrot puree, apple sauce. He will eat all of these off my finger but not from a spoon. He enjoys playing with the spoon/food, loves his high chair. But when I put the spoon near his mouth he just closes his lips.
My pediatrician told me to just keep trying. But seems like he should make some progress after a month. Advice?
