maybe she's teething? My 7 months old did the same thing recently. i kept offering food at meal times but didn't force it... sure enough a new tooth has cut through and she's eating her food again. Good luck!

I agree. Just keep trying. In times of stress they revert back to bottles. Possibly teething or getting a cold?

No reason to push solids just yet. Before one year of age, all they're for is fun and practice with different textures. I'd just roll with the punches and offer again when he's ready.
