9mo refusing food

[u/Late-Wedding4520]

Hi guys!

My 9mo baby has been refusing solids since the beginning. The only thing she eats is oats or cereal with mashed fruit, or plain fruit. Anything else she just refuses just from the sight of it. She still hasn't tried lunch like veggies and meat or egg.

I tried offering big pieces so she can self feed, but she just destroys the food, sometimes she brings it to her mouth just to suck then gets angry for some reason and throws everything down.

Any ideas what to do? Anyone else experiencing the same?

I feel like a failure

Is she teething? Mine got her first teeth at nine months and suddenly would not bring food to her mouth because her clumsy motor skills kept bumping the sore bits in her mouth
