Question about food textures

daisy_dueller · August 2010

I am making Evan some baby food, and am having a bit of trouble texture wise...he usually just has the purees, but has been really good about taking bits and pieces of our food with no problem, so I started to make his food with a bit more texture to it than the purees, and now he's refusing it. I don't know if it's the new flavours, or the more coarse texture that's making him refuse. What texture is your 7ish month old eating? Would you back off on the homemade food and go back to purees if you were in my shoes??

Once we gave her solid foods she wasn't as interested in purees anymore. I would go to solids myself. Also, if I gave her bits of food that are too small, she doesn't chew them, they just hang out on her tongue and slide down her throat which gags her.

My DS started refusing solids this week. Not sure what the deal is, he now gags. I think the texture was too much so I think I'll go back to purees and start over.

My LO was doing the same thing - once I kept feeding him the more coarse texture, he got used to it and eats it fine now.
