7 month and finger food issues

3 replies

Hi my 7 month old has been mouthing everything since 4 months etc. And when 6 months was mouthing some finger foods and now she's 7.5 months and she's eating purées fine but she doesn't seem to be interested in mouthing foods. She just plays with them. She may have a taste sometimes then stops.

She moths toys all the time still and other objects. How is it she knows not to try with food????

Anyone else had this issue? Thanks

I'd try not to worry, just keep putting something there for her along with the mashed/puréed food. She probably just associates food with a spoon fir now Smile

I know, it can be maddening can't it? My DD was the opposite, would only have finger foods and went bonkers if a spoon came near her. They all get there in the end Smile
