Still, I’m trying to keep offering it gently. I don’t have any extra help around, but a good friend gave me some advice: "Don’t focus on filling her tummy. Right now, it’s just about letting her taste different foods and getting used to the idea." That really helped shift my mindset. I also searched for videos on how to feed babi...
