BLW - do you leave the skin on the avocado?

Maybe a dumb question...but do you cut it in wedges and leave the skin on to make it easier to hold or take it off?

    No.  But I did leave the skin on peaches (when we first started BLW) as they were super slippery.  Now DS is very good at picking up food, even very slippery ones, so I leave the skins off everything.

    I don't blw but when I do start to give chunks of food like that it help to roll it in something like smashed Cheerios. Then it isn't so slippery.

    You can also roll in wheat germ to help with grip!

    When we started I took the skin off and just let him work it out himself. He didn't get frustrated but if he would have I'm sure I would have left the skin on.

    I take it off because she just bite the skin and tried to eat it the time I did try to leave it on. I ended up taking a break from avocado until she got better at her grip. She's 8 months now and doesn't have a problem with it.
