eating solids

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

Our baby Nicolas (18 months) usually eats, not very well but

watching a video, listening to music, playing with us, etc. The big

issue here is that Nicolas is still eating everything on puree. He

eats almost everything as a grown baby but everything is blended.

Our doctor keeps saying us we should start giving Nicolas more solid

and things he should begin chewing his food. We have tried a lot but

is it honestly a nightmare as everythime we do this he gets choked

or he ends vomiting his food. He only has like 7 tooth but we think

he should be ready for eating more solid food as a grown up.

The only solids he eats are rice, some bread, cookies, fried (just

one o half of a piece!)

Does this has happened to any of you, have you found any therapy or

solution for getting him involved in eating more solid food? Is this

going to be a problem in the future? Should I force him or what

should I do? I alwyas end blending him his food as we just need him

to eat however the food is presented.

Thanks a lot.
