I started weaning my DS at 6 months. However, I exclusively fed him very smooth purees for about 5 weeks. A mistake I realise, as now that I have tried to introduce foods with some small lumps, he just won't really eat it. It's like he doesn't have any instinct to chew. He may keep the food in his mouth for 4 or 5 seconds but then he lets it fall back out of his mouth. Whereas he wolfs down smooth purees... I don't know what to do. Do I persist in trying to feed him slightly lumpy food (even if it means he hardly eats solids at all)? Is there anything I can do to encourage him to eat lumpier foods? Thanks
