Toddlers: 24 Months+

HELP! 26 month old not chewing!

any ideas or anyone go through this with their LO?

he is doing it on occasion where he'll hold a banana and take a few bites and sometimes he'll 'eat' a cookie but really he just takes little pieces off and disolves them in his mouth!

i've tried putting food on his tray and he freaks....then i'll put a bowl of yogurt/cottage cheese/apple sauce/chopped up banana/chopped and smooshed avocado/ or something like that and he'll eat it all up!

his dinners are SO healthy - i use the baby bullet for spinach, beans, fruit etc and he'll eat it.

he's not picky - just with textures.

looking for ideas

TIA!

i have a referral into the pedi office for a check to make sure it's not a physical problem.

  • Is this a new thing or has he always lived on soft foods?

    always...i gave him a chunk of banana today and he freaked and wouldn't take a bit. so i showed him chopping it up into his bowl of yogurt into about dime or a bit bigger sized pieces and he ate the whole thing with a spoon!! go figure...
