Why the funny face?

My daughter has just started eating fruits and veggies as per her pediatrician's ok (we actually waited an extra few weeks because she had a cold and didn't want to overload her). Over the weeks she has tried peas, carrots, sweet potatoes and applesauce, all gerber organic. Everytime I feed her fruits or veggies she makes a face that looks like she's disgusted! She still eats it but she looks very reluctant even after eating the same veggie many days in a row, she just doesn't seem to like anything! She's even doing that to her rice cereal now too! Has anyone else experienced this? Do you think it's that she doesn't like the taste or maybe it's just a face she makes at something new? I even tried to food myself to make sure it didn't taste weird!

Why the funny face?
She is probably just making the face because its new. If she didnt like it she would let you know my spitting it back out at you or not eating it at all.
Reply:very normal


if you read up on starting solids, they say to expect that





it's a new taste to the baby, they dont know what it is.


it doesn't mean they dont like it!
Reply:it may be the texture of the food since it's new to her. maybe she's trying it out on all the taste buds she can find. she sounds like a peach.
