Baby food too runny

nunzchucks · September 2012

We just tried squash for the first time today. I am just feeding the regular old Gerber stuff. Feel free to judge me for not making it myself and not feeding organic. The problem is that it is too runny. DD has been eating relatively thick oatmeal and the runny squash just came squirting back out. Any tips for thickening it? We put a little rice cereal in to give it some texture. That seemed to work, but I am open to other ideas.

I was going to suggest just mixing the two. The fact that he wants it thicker is a good thing, will make the transitions to stage 2 easier.

This. Thicken it with the cereal.
