Many parents lose patience when their children they don't want to try a new food. It usually happens when the dairy diet is changed exclusively and begins to be combined with complementary feeding. Faced with the refusal of the child, they choose to give up and classify the child "as bad eating", "tricky" or "fussy." Giving up is a mistake that should not be committed.
The child must learn to accept the new foods offered. At first you will reject them but you will end up accepting them if you have the opportunity to test them repeatedly in a favorable environment without pressure; The baby will need time to get used to the variety of new flavors and textures. It is very important that parents do not prove anxious about the child's refusal, much less force him to eat. It is advisable to act with patience-persistence in the final stage of exclusive breastfeeding and before the increase of autonomy, before you start walking.
If a new food is introduced that is rejected, the ideal is to try new foods several times a week, thus reducing the negative reactions that can easily be established in the diet.
