Puree Strike?

in Babies: 6 - 9 Months

Does anyone else have a LO who loved purees and suddenly stopped eating them? For the past 3 days or so my little guy refuses to let me feed him anything with a spoon! I am thinking this is way of telling me that he is ready for chunkier food?

I practically have a panic attack giving him a cheerio! I know lots of people do BLW but I'm just not there. Any tips on how to make things interesting for him so he will keep eating? Should I be moving into more table/finger foods?

    DD did that with her pureed veggies. She's finally back to taking her yellow/orange veggies, but I still have to mix her green veggies with a little applesauce to get her to take them.

    my DD is doing that too, I thought it was really strange!  The last few days she has been sick and only on formula so we will try solids agian tomorrow.  Hopefully its just a phase!

    DD did that for a little over a week.   She is now back at loving them.  Even the fruit, which she didn't like before.

    My DS did this and we only were on purses for a month or so (started soldier at 6 months). It's messy but if I gave him the spoon to feed himself it made him much happier. I would put the food on the spoon and then leave it on the highchair for him to do himself. Then I made sweet potatoes and avocado and bananas that I mushed up and in tiny pieces so he wouldn't choke. I also would break up the puffs and yogurt bites He is now 9 months and is only eating finger foods. BLW scared me so did a modified version. I also spoke to the pedi and he said not to worry about DS not wanting to eat as it is just for play and discovery right now.

    Thanks for all the tips Mamas! We had some success with some yoghourt drenched cheerios this morning, and he ate almost a whole banana just eating little pieces of it!
