My baby got sick and no longer wants baby food: Advice?

My 7 month old was doing great on solids and everything was good…then we all got the flu and it has been weeks and he wants nothing to do with food and only wants bottles…is this normal?

Yes completely normal, try solids again in about a months time

I think it’s normal. maybe baby knows they cant handle solids right now

Yes as long as he is drinking it’s okay

I would be going to the emergency department

Completely. Especially if little one vomited with solids in system. Sometimes certain solids make it rough during vomiting and can cause kids and adults to associate that food with being sick. Little one may also recognize they are not ready to restart solids just yet. Just keep baby hydrated and keep offering food periodically.
