ive tried putting a little of different fruits in her yogurt but when she has peice of fruit in her mouth she usally spits it out and she takes her bottle after she eats plus all she wants to do is play in her food

i don't think she's crying because it's not filling her up fast enough. do you give her a breastfeed/bottle before food? have you tried letting her eat it with her fingers?

it will take some time have patience.i have been there and its hard.
what i did was that i will my baby to eat something what she likes to eat like her favorite pureed food before try some other food that way she didnt get hungry and cranky.try little bit at once dont think that she will eat the whole banana at once not even half some times.its good that she eats yogurt.you can cut banana into small sized chunks and mix those up with yogurt and make her eat that if she likes that then try other fruits.when i try to feed my baby i read her some book or i put some abc song for on computer that way she is busy and will eat.good luck and god bless.
