Over milking?

A friend of mine gave me some of her lovely home cooked food mashed and he choked and vomited on that. Her DS is exact same age and eats at least pea sized lumps of food if not more. I know DD was too.

I think you just have to keep at it with the lumps, some babies seem to take longer than others with them and just remember it does happen one day.I gave DD a small piece of apple once, can't remember how old. I was really pleased it seemed to be going down well until I realised she was storing it in her cheeks like a hamster and then refused to spit them out.

Beef in red wine sauce going down seems like a distant dream at the moment but gives me hope !

QV, some of them prefer finger food, instead? Any luck with that?

QV I was still liquidizing / blitzing at 9 months, even though DS would eat toast, rice cakes, etc, he still wouldn;t eat main meals in anything but smooth consistency. HV was appalled (but she was easily appalled).

It came around 11 months iirc, when I started mashing, but still had to blitz meat until he was around 15 months.

He eats like a horse now (22 months), and even loves bizarre things like whole black olives (without stones obv!). Don;t sweat it!

Ah, no bottles here

Although thats not through want of trying either. He refuses water from bottle or cup. I have given him finger food and when he doesnt look at it in disgust he will suck a bit into his mouth and gag and choke on it, and again, vomits.

I have left him to his own devices and he rubs the food in his eyes! Then gags, and chokes on it.

Feel like im going to be b/feeding him forever.

Im scared to stop all out

My son (2.6) is retaining food in his mouth for ages..sometimes up to 1 hour. He wont chew but simply sucks the life out of the food and then wants to spit it out. We have cut out all distrations at meal times, toys, stories, music but he still holds it in his mouth for a long time. Mealtimes can take an age and our patience wears thin! I think mealtimes make him quite anxious and he feels this is the only control he has...anyone else have this problem?

roman chicken looks damn fine.

DS (16mo) also loves beef casserole - the more red wine the better. DH a bit shocked
