9 1/2 month old not interested in solids

I've tried everything. He doesn't seem to be interested in eating anything other than his bottle. He has like 7 teeth right now I know he could chew on something but he doesn't even have an interest in putting anything in his mouth at all which I find strange because I always heard that babies put everything in their mouth. What can I do to get him to start eating? I try at least twice a day. Any suggestions? Is this normal? What finally worked fo you? Please help, I'm concerned that he's not getting enough food and I don't think he'll ever start to sleep through the night until he does.(Boy am I tired) His ped. said to continue to feed him when he wakes because he wasn't drinking enough formula for his age.

Thanks for any help
