If you suspect your child has serious feeding problems, consult your doctor or health care professional.

Occasional poor appetite
  Don't worry. Babies have their own tastes and preferences. However, if it is a frequent or recurring problem, ask your doctor about it.
 
Rejects vegetables
  Introduce vegetables first, then fruits. That way, your baby may not refuse vegetables in favour of sweeter fruits
 
Dislikes new foods
  It takes time for a baby to get used to new tastes. Don't give up yet! Try the same new flavour a few times before cutting it out.
 
Doesn't want to use spoon at first
  This is normal as any foreign object is put in baby's mouth. She will get used to it very quickly. Don't feed cereal or baby food from the bottle.
