S/O BLW Check-in

Those with LO that have teeth...what are you doing? I know it's part of the learning process but LO keeps biting off large pieces and gags on it; every bite. We just started so I know he's just figuring it out but I still feel uneasy sometimes.

  • Maybe start with softer food until he's more used to chewing.  I know it's hard to not freak out but gagging is good -- it means he's not going to try and swallow something he's unable to.

  • CJ does not have teeth and will make chewing motions.  This took a couple - a few weeks to develop, though.  I want to say the gagging subsided, too.  We've been doing it for about a month (he is 6.5 months).

  • Jo is still working on her teeth. Recently she has started the chewing motion. We mostly give her softer foods or foods that will dissolve with spit.
