Has anyone else had this experience? DD has never been much of a puree eater. The most I've ever gotten her to eat is 1/2 a jar of stage 1 foods. I've made fresh foods and it doesn't seem to make a big difference. Lately she refuses purees entirely.
She will open her mouth for Cheerios and the tiniest bits of bananas or avocados (like 1/8 the size of a Cheerio). However, she will frequently make herself vomit from banana and avocado bits (sort of like gagging till she vomits if the food hits the wrong part of her mouth).
But she will never turn down a Cheerio! Any suggestions on how I can get her to eat something else or ideas for another food she can handle?
Re: DD only eats Cheerios!
Why don't you try baby led weaning (BLW)? It is great for babies that don't like purees and actually reduces the risk of choking since the baby is in control of what goes into their mouth.

There are a bunch of us on the Attachment Parenting board that do it if you have any questions.
