9mo and very "crackly" when feeding?

My DD is 9mo and has been eating solids since 5.5mo. She eats foods with a variety of textures - eg spoon-fed yoghurts, thicker consistencies like curries, and finger foods like crudites, omelettes and croissants. When eating, and for 10 mins or so afterwards she is really "crackly", as if she has a chesty cough. Her chest is clear though, and all is well after a few minutes. The crackliness doesn't vary according to the consistency food.
She eats really well (lots, and quickly!). I'm just a little concerned as I don't know of any other babies who are similar.

Any thoughts/experiences?

Hi, Dont mean to worry you but I would get it checked out, just incase she is aspirating some food into lungs instead of swallowing properly. Very unlikely without other symptoms and the fact it resolves quickly but I would check with your hv, gp or even nhs direct!!!
