Holds food in mouth instead of swallowing it?
What the heck are we doing with kids who still don’t chew and swallow their food? My boy keeps the food in his mouth and close mouth cry’s until I dig it out 😵💫

100% if it’s soft and can melt he’s good. Egg whites, carrots, broccoli not so much.
Sometimes my daughter will let food sit in her mouth and I think it's her playing with it, but I do soft foods so it's fine and eventually she swallows it
@Del I steam veggies till they are soft but he still just won’t seems to swallow it. What soft foods are you doing?
@Shay hm maybe they just don't like them or are unsure? Ive been doing carrots and potatoes lately because that's the main things I have at the moment, I've also made mashed potatoes.

Maybe do food that melt in his mouth like small avocado slices , ripe mango slices, bananas? My son does that also and it’s frustrating because he has no teeth yet and he’s push out reflex is still strong .. but he’s dying to try solids 😅
