From Puree to Finger Food - How to introduce texture in Baby Food

[@jenf4884]

I’m so nervous about my baby gagging too much or choking on finger foods and I didn’t know where to start with transitioning from purée (he is almost 10 months) but after seeing your video I now know that it’s so easy! I just need to pull out my hand blender and make a thicker consistency...once we are comfortable there I can transition to actual finger foods! I think I just see my friend’s babies moving onto finger foods so fast on social media. It’s hard not to compare sometimes, but I need to remember every baby is different and I will follow his lead, I want this to be fun and not scary or forced for either of us! Thank you for your video reminding me to stay present with my baby :)

[@Buonapappa]

You got it my dear!! Every baby is different and develops with a different pace. Comparing is human :-) but should not turn you down! Also remember that social media has an unrealistic filter and people usually post the good things about life. No-one knows your baby better than you, follow your instinct, it will be fine!!! Thank you so much for watching, ciao!! b

[@msnatalie826]

Same here I’m afraid my baby will choke w finger foods but know he should be stage 3 How big should finger food pieces be?

Exactly I feel the same way!

We’re in the same boat with our 11 month old son. Information like this is very useful. Mahalos

[@moroccanfoodbyibtissam]

Thank you so much for this great video. It helps me a lot. I was comparing my baby to others on social media. I forced my son to eat texture food which cause him to refuse to eat anything even puree food that he loves. It took me two days to just have him eat puree back. Definitely do not compare your baby to others. Every baby is different.

[@POONAM044]

u explain so well. My son is 13 months he got his first teeth at 11 month and still wean a lot while eating. I see other parents and start comparing ...this is human nature now i am learning

[@hanan763]

Thank you so much for this video! I know it’s old but ur advice and the way you deliver your message is so timeless and soooo calming. Honestly thank you, I’ve been doing this mom thing on my own and quite stressed about giving my baby Solids. After seeing some friends already feeding there babies and ppl questioning me I ended up putting more pressure on myself and my child which is so unnecessary. I don’t think my baby is ready and I just need to follow her cues. I burst into tears watching this! Thank you for putting me at ease! 💕💕💕💕

[@kendra4185]

Same! My son is 10 months and I’m so nervous about giving him finger foods and yet a colleague of mine gave her daughter (same age) a whole shrimp. I definitely started doubting myself. Especially when almost all the videos on KZbin show baby led weaning. I feel better after watching this.

Great video, thank you. I have a 10 month old that has only just started eating. He hates the high chair and dislikes the spoon so I have to feed him sat on the floor with a little food on my finger. He only really likes textures that mush down in his mouth like bread or cereals. I must keep reminding myself to relax and move at his speed, thank you 😊

Great video. As a father of 7 month old twins (6 months corrected) I have been looking at lots of videos of weaning recently and this one really gave me confidence in a few ideas and made me feel like this is less of a sprint but a stroll we take alongside and develop with our babies.

How do you get pass being anxious about adding texture to your baby's food or giving the small pieces? I'm terrified of my son choking and I'm afraid my anxiety might be getting in the way of him eating different textured foods.

[@RCP511]

I feel the same. I’ve started with soft foods. Eggs, pasta, bananas avocado ect. She still makes me nervous sometimes because I can tell she’s not chewing as well as she should but she’s improved over the last week. She just turned 1, and now I’m struggling on what to feed her for breakfast lunch and dinner everyday. I came across this channel and I’m looking forward to trying some of the recipes.

Every child develops at a different pace and there are no standards with feeding phases. Some children totally skip a phase, other children stay in the same phase for months and months. If your little one is enjoying her food and is growing I would not worry.

My 7 mo baby girl loved purée when she was 4 mo up until now. when she hit 7 mo she stopped eating the purée, she gets fussy in the high chair and only takes a few bites and then closes her lips shut so I was thinking she’s teething or she doesn’t like purée ? But we made pancakes one night and I cut up the pancake the size of my index finger length wise and she just picked it up and started feeding herself, she ate the whole pancake, but she gagged and coughed a couple times which scared me so bad. I don’t know what to do or how I can give her the type of food texture she likes while it is safe also? Do you guys have any suggestions? It’s like she skipped from stage 1 all the way to the last stage. And I’m worried about the safety most of all. Thanks.

Hello! My son is 14 month old .. I tried lots of time to give solid food and finger food in between but he don’t like .. he likes puree form only and lay down on my lap.. he never sit when he take food ..what should I do ?? I’m so worrying.. plz suggest me

[@LizAkyxll]

Hi, my baby started on purées with Organix and Ella’s Kitchens baked chips/crisps which he does just fine on but now at nearly 12 months he doesn’t prefer chunky purées or oats. He tries to remove pieces but instead prefers chopped up small pieces of real drier food like scrambled egg/bread and cheese. Should I keep offering the chunky purées before moving onto finger foods only? He just wants to remove any texture out of his mouth but does just fine with regular foods. Still too lazy for BLW or eating on his own as he prefers to be fed by me (isn’t a big eater prefers milk). Also, still has a very strong GAG reflex and gets stuck a lot with food - always been very sensitive since birth. What can I do about this?

[@Buonapappa]

You are welcome!

[@jessicakika527]

thank you so much! My baby is 9 months and love purees

[@whiteheaven2011]

My baby just vomited everything out and he is 16months old, loves purees. I tried a lot to add texture to his food, little by little, but to no avail. I am all tearing up, knowing not what to do. This worries me a lot. Any suggestion will be appreciated. At his age, he should be able to chew and not gag so much on textured food. I have been following your advices on food preparations ever since my baby started on solids. God bless you.

[@Buonapappa]

Hello my dear, I'm sorry to hear your concern. Yes, it's true that usually at 16 months toddlers eat a more structured food, but it's also true that 16 months is not too late and your baby might just need more time. Does he eat purees only or at least some finger food (crackers/tiny pieces of fruit/cheese bites..) as a snack or separately from the puree? How is his overall development? Does he talk? There are very interesting studies about the food/speech relationship (this is one article as an example www.new-vis.com/fym/papers/p-feed8.htm ). If you are concerned about your baby/toddler proper growth, if your toddler totally refuses textured food and even finger food, my suggestion is to consult your pediatrician for further examinations. I hope I was helpful! ciao, b

[@whiteheaven2011]

@@Buonapappa I am pleasantly surprised to get a reply from you. My baby's overall development is quite normal, like, I know he is a late bloomer. My sister, brother and I was a late bloomer. And he is quite the same. He says the usual stuffs, dada nana baba mama, he likes to chew on white chocolate wafers, he eats the Heinz baby biscuits, he likes textures of muesli, but he gags on food that he needs to chew a bit more. I am not worried about his speech. Rather, i am worried about the fact that he swallows every time i put food in his mouth. And that's when he gags and vomits. Thankyou so much again for the reply. Love you and your work ❤

[@Buonapappa]

Hello my dear! it's my pleasure to reply. It's just that sometimes it takes a while :-) from what you say it seems a normal speech and overall development. Another suggestion I can give you - when you try with a more textured puree - is to let him feed himself. Try the double spoon method. He has one spoon and you have the other. You start offering him a spoon and encouraging him to do the same. Sometimes toddlers refuse food because they don't want to be fed, it's an early affirmation of independency. I really hope that's the case. Thank you again for watching and keep me updated! ciao, b

[@Buonapappa]

Hi! I can tell you that every child has a different developmental pace. There is not a standard timeline for food stages. Some children simply skip one phase or stay in one way longer than other kids. Still, if you are concerned I would suggest to consult your pediatrician. Sometimes (but it doesn't mean she is the case) food delays are related to speech delays, that's when a professional opinion is suggested. Ciao, b

[@Buonapappa]

Hi! no, it's not too early, some babies simply start with finger foods :-) Steamed carrots, sweet potatoes, apples, pears. Also, banana, avocado are a great option. The rule is that you should be able to easily mash the food simply pressing it between your thumb and index. That tells you if it's soft enough for a baby. I hope I was helpful! ciao, b

Hello my dear, I'm sorry to hear that. From your comment it seems that your baby is a light eater, but with some creativity and effort from you, he is enjoying his food. If he's growing and you don't see any other symptom that worries you (not regular sleep, cries a lot, fatigue..) I would continue being patient with him: at one he's still very young and he's learning how to eat. Consider also that at his age teething is a big disadvantage that lowers the appetite.

He was refusing to eat anything that wasn`t baby puree, but now will eat mashed potatoes, baby cereal, and every once in a while I can get him to a few bites of the baby food with little bits. However, after about 5 or 6 bites of that he usually starts to cry and refuses to take anymore bites of the little bits. He is making progress, but it`s really slow. What I have been doing is just giving him something that he normally won`t eat every few days. If he is okay with it I start giving it to him more often but if he has really strong reaction i wait a little longer before giving it to him again. Poor thing had to have ice cream for his birthday because he refused to touch the cake. I think we just have to let them go at their own pace and make sure they`re getting as much nutrition as possible.
