Its important to know difference between gagging and choking! I watched videos ect to see the difference! Maybe introduce veg and fruits not meals yet? Its important you feel comfortable. Just cut up different veg and fruit, let her play and slowly work yourself up to ‘meals’! I give different fruit in morning and toast, lunches/dinners omelette, different veg, roast potato, pasta ect Milk varies as feed on demand dont pay attention to set amount. She still drinks a lot of milk I would say!

I’m the same, started with purées but she didn’t really understand feeding herself so I ended up spoon feeding her. Now she just opens her mouth and won’t pick anything up. I tried with banana this morning and she did hold it in her hand, bit a bit off then gagged a lot. I’m just making sure to have her water beaker ready and will keep persisting with low risk foods like thin cucumber sticks and softened carrots

I’m too scared for finger foods so my little one has just been on purees (I just blend what we’ve been having minus the salt and stock). Think I might give it another week or two before trying them again (when he’s closer to 8 months), but for now I’m just spoon feeding and he will help guide the spoon into his mouth. He really isn’t interested in the food and will only take a few spoonfuls before becoming distressed so we’re taking it very slow. He still breastfeeds a few times in the night and I will give him porridge or weetabix in the morning. He barely eats any and then wants boob straight afterwards. He pretty much has the same amount as he had before weaning. If he has a decent lunch, he may not have a feed until an hour or two afterwards. We’ve not started on dinner just yet so he has a few decent feeds in an evening

Banana day 2 and she properly ate some today. You’ve just got to keep trying
