Hi all, ds is 23.5 weeks, the size of a giant (21lb but v stocky) has 2 bottom teeth half through and can sit up unaided for about 30 secs.. he's been interested in food for a while, watching me eat etc and grabbing for my food. He's not sleeping through either although i know that's not a motivation !!
so, i have given him odd bits of fruit, which he's just pushed around his tray so far.
the other day i gave him pitta bread and he gagged a little so i took it awya. this morning i gave him toast which he picked up, stared at, pushed around tray and then started to chomp and suck on. He looked like he was enjoying it - no gagging - but then spat a couple of bits of mush out, so i panicked and took it off him.
don't really know why i'm posting tbh, just that i seem to be lacking in guts at the mo and am paranoid he's going to choke ! deffo want to go down this route as it makes total sense to me, but wonder if i'm being impatient ? should i wait a while longer ?
hes breastfed btw but seems hungrier than normal, altho it's hard to say for sure cos he's at the 'i want to watch the world go by' stage !!!
