When will my DS eat anything other than pureed foods?
My DS is 10 1/2 months now and won't eat anything but pureed foods (except thick oatmeal). Anything with small lumps, chunks or any texture he absolutely won't eat. He cries, spits it out and what he doesn't get out he gags as though he's choking ( which of course freaks me out). I gave him yams and peas tonight, mashed well and I even added some water so it wouldn't be too thick. He's had sweet potatoes and peas in puree form (Earths Organic) and loves it but this he hated. He gagged like he was choking and the food wasn't even chunky. It wasn't pureed though so it did have texture to it, especially the peas. He didn't want any of it so I fed him Earths Organic pureed green beans and rice and squash instead and he was fine. I was joking with my DH that our son will be in kindergarten taking Earths pureed food for lunch. Has anyone else dealt with this? If so when did your baby start eating chunkier foods? Any advice for me?
