Baby solid food diet
My baby is now 8 months old. Started solids after he was 6 months. Initially he was eating a bit of everything but now he has totally stopped taking solids. He closes his mouth tight so can't feed him anything at all. He won't have much of breast milk also. In last couple of months he had ear infection and cold. As a resul he hasn't gained weight since then. I'm worried about his eating habits. I have tired to feed him cerelac, booked vegetables, furits, homemade purees, etc. He doesn't likes anything. Please advice

Babies do get fussy about feeds. It is absolutely normal. Also it is a phase and will pass away. Until then continue your efforts, however frustrating it gets.
In the meanwhile, you can ask your pediatrician to prescribe certain supplements to up his appetite and immunity
