My 9mth dd is a very good eater, but she chokes on just about every finger food I offer. I have tried well cooked cauliflower, carrot, rice cakes, rusks, cucumber and we always have a 'near-death' choking experience often followed by gagging and vomiting. She recovers quickly, and these episodes have not effected her keeness to try. She is absoulutely fine with slightly lumpy meals so long as they are moistened with milk/liquid and she CAN chew(only 2 bottom teeth though) Basically i'm too scared to offer any of the above but concerned as I have read this may stunt her chewing and therefore talking development. Any suggestions, as she's beginning to get bored with mummy feeding her purees...we have had success with avocados, and grated cheese. I just don't want to risk it if i don't have to.
