He doesn't do lumps either! Pretty bad when you have to purify lumpy baby food. He also doesn't put anything to his mouth to chew, like babies do, whether it's toys, food, whatever!
HV says he rakes ok with his hand, pincer grips food, and kinda chews, but spits whatever out! He'll eat anything though! Never refused anything we've given him, unless it's too lumpy!
Maybe he's just a fussy bugger, as he also will only drink out of a doidy cup or proper cup, unless it's milk. He is BF and has formula in a bottle when I work.
HV suggests cutting soft food into cubes for him to play with. Still finding bits off banana from Tuesday, lol. But we have always let him play with food. He doesn't mind getting his hands dirty, IYKWIM.
It's his birthday party next Saturday and he'll probably be the only baby that won't feed himself!
