Is this normal?

[Solasum]

We have been tasting foods for a few weeks now. DS is 6mo. A normal 'meal' is a couple of spoons of puree, a few sucks on a piece of very ripe fruit, a few sucks of rusk/bread and a sip or two of water. He wants to do everything for himself which is very messy! Drinking milk as normal. Is this normal at the beginning? Other babies I have met seem to be eating cubes and cubes. He seems to enjoy tasting things, just not eating them.

Sounds normal to me .

Same here. DD is still tasting stuff but it's mostly coming out of her mouth after she's sampled it. I know she likes the taste though as she was attempting to lick it of her bib the other day. Can't see she we be taking a lot more in a few weeks time - although she very quickly learnt to open her mouth for the spoon over a few days.

DS won't let me spoon feed him, he grabs the spoon every time.
